Pre grouping wagon number

Post by peterchristensen »

Hi can anyone point me to a ref site to identify the wagon that would have carried the number E264070? The wooden solebar (clearly showing the number and date 1944) is currently supporting the neighbouring farm stable roof!
Thanks
Peter

This was one of a large batch of high sided opens to Diagram 191. This particular batch from 1944 was numbered 263300 to 265299 and was the final wooden chasiis design.

This was pre nationalisation rather than pre-group!

I would suggest Peter Tatlow's LNER Wagons or the more up to date Volume 4A which I think covers the opens. Have a look at the thread for Volume 4A LNER Wagons by Peter Tatlow.
