It was used to haul limestone traffic from the quarries at Tunstead, near Buxton in the Derbyshire Peak District, to the I.C.I. processing works at Northwich. For this it was given BR TOPS no. 19052 and LMS registration no. 151397. The official tare weight is quoted as 23 <ref>Stanier 8F Society</ref> It had a capacity of 48 tons<ref>Railway Heritage Register Wagon Survey</ref><ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Marsden (1984)]] p. 89.</ref>, with although the SVR Stock Book and Stanier 8F Society give a load carried capacity of 1,230 cubic feet equating to 43&frac12; tons. The TOPS code for this class of wagon was originally PHV, recoded to JGV in 1990.<ref>[http://www.ltsv.com/w_ref_datasheet_ph.php LTSV Wagons]</ref>
Motive power used to haul these wagons would have included Stanier 8F locomotives. The wagon is one of two acquired by the [[Stanier 8F Locomotive Society]], although there is no record that [[LMS Stanier 8F 48773 | 48773]] was used to haul ICI mineral traffic. It arrived on 16 May 1994 and was photographed in April 2015 stored on the [[Stourport Triangle]].
