  1. Yes sand hopper trains were also using the yard until 1979 as there was a gravel / sand quarry and conveyor next to the tracks - there is a picture on Flickr showing a class 47 shunting these wagons through the goods shed at this time. This quarry is now fishing lakes I think
  2. These wagons were used on the Southminster sand train to/from Mile End until 1979. Looking at pictures on the internet and a book I have on the line the wagons were normally hauled by class 37 or 47 although once a class 50 did the honours.
  3. Where did you buy the wheels from? I am interested in the standard stock but have no idea where to buy the 9mm pinpoint wheels from and Radlett don’t seem to stock them either!
  4. This article may give some ideas - East Finchley in the early 60s for example https://www.lurs.org.uk/02 jan 17 FREIGHT ON THE UNDERGROUND.pdf
