justin Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Can anyone identify the two chassis's in this photo taken at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway by Andrew Murray recently? On top is, I think, a GWR chassis from a Churchward 3500 gallon tender. Is this correct and which locomotive is it from on the NYMR? Carrying it is a six wheel chassis that I'm pretty sure has been used as an ingot carrier at a steel works. The NYMR have another of these with much bigger frame slots that is definitely from an ex NER tender. I haven't seem narrow slots like this before, is it from a tender, or is it this a home brewed steel works built wagon? If anyone can help I would like to add the information to the Vintage Carriage Trust Tender Survey website. Thanks Justin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenw Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Those frame slots aren't NER. NER tender's frame slots were either a 'D' on it's back, or on later tenders the same 'rounded-end rectangle' as the later LNER standard, though with both the same size as NER tenders were equal wheelbase. Don't look like NER axleboxes either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nedrahn Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'd imagine the GWR tender would be from the resident 28xx, 3814, wouldn't it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Have a flick thru the NYMR stock list, that might help. http://nymr.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/NYMR-Stock-List-Jan-2011.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
