LNER Trout ballast hopper

Post by PaulG »

In the July issue of Hornby Magazine there are the first illustrations I have seen of Hornby's model of the LNER Trout ballast hopper.

The model in LNER livery compares very well with the drawings and photograph in Peter Taplow's book on LNER Wagons and the version in TOPS livery also compares well with photographs on Paul Bartlett's web site.

What livery would the wagon have carried in the BR 1950s period and can anyone sugest a source of photographs?

Regards
Paul
