These stores vans once ran as a pair. One had all the stores and oil tanks in it and the other had an office and guards compartment so i beleive. The one at Pickering is a stores van but can any one confirm that the one at Beamish is the other one of the pair with the office/guards compartment?

There were 5 diagrams

H1 6 wheel
H2 Bogie with Roof Lookout
H3 Bogie I believe that the one in the pictures above
H4 Bogie
H5 6 wheel

D&S made the H2 and H3 and sold as a pair I have a set and can post pictures if needed
There are a few pictures in the new Tatlow LNER/NER wagon book. If anyone :?: :?: has any further pictures/measurements of the H5 they would be great as I would like to scratchbuild one to go with the pair I already have.


The very tatty one at Beamish is here looks like a H3 as well ?

This document says it was built 1902 and numbered 5523; can we get the diagram from that?

Like Mick I fancy the two D & S ones and then a scratchbuild or two to make up the train as shown in Tatlow.
