B Wagons

From Festipedia, hosted by the FR Heritage Group

The high-sided vehicles ("B wagons") came filled with track fittings from the lifted Umzinto-Donnybrook line, and in a "natural rust" livery. In 2002 a programme was started to give them both mechanical attention and fresh coats of paint. Some were ready for use on mixed trains at the September 2002 Superpower Weekend, and work continued subsequently, to provide a smart rake of wagons which will be used on Driver Experience trains. The work has been done by volunteers from North Wales and the WHRS West Midlands Group

Two "unimproved" B wagons are being moved back to the FR in early 2006, to be used as loco coal wagons in the FR's programme to convert some locos back to coal firing. One was transferred by road on February 4th 2006. This was in use as a coal wagon by April 2006. The second wagon was transfered by road on April 22nd.
