G'day,
just trying to decipher the above 1934/1938 documents. Most is obvious, however some trains are described as 'Trks', presumably short for trucks.
Usually they are Class B sometimes Class C.
This as opposed to Braked Goods, Goods, Coal etc.
Is 'Trks' a reference to Covered Vans? to CCT? to Cattle trucks or some other?
I have got all the cans, just missing the plastic thingy that holds them all together...
regards

I seem to recall that Gerry Fiennes mentioned that on the GE, empty coal trains were called 'truck trains'
