Whilst not modelling specific, I was wondering if any of our learned members could tell me a something about these cast Iron wagon plates that I bought in the early 1970's for, I think £3, and have been hanging on the wall since then. I am guilty of painting them in non original colours, as they were were decorative purposes back then. I guess the 12 ton plate would be from an early 1920s LMS van, and the 10 ton plate from a private owners wagon. Any idea of the value nowadays? Not that I wan't to sell them, but my relatives might! Thanks for your help.

I have just received this morning, for a project on my OO scale Shortmoor Military Railway, two sets of Modelmaster MOD/WD wagon lettering  decals in white and yellow; but I have found it very difficult to find pictures or books illustrating MOD vans in the 1950's to 80's period, as to the correct lettering placement etc; so I would be very grateful for any help or advice given. Can I assume that the vans would be lettered as the BR vans of the same period? Incidentally, the Modelmaster decals were delivered promptly, despite criticism of delays I have seen posted.
