[[File: SECR_12522_20150402.jpg |thumb|200px|right| SE&CR Open Goods Wagon 12522]]
This ex-South East and Chatham Railway Open Goods Wagon was built at Ashford, Kent in 1920. Many wagons of this period were wooden-framed, but this example had steel chassis members. As a result it had a long working life, passing to the SR at Grouping in 1923, and to BR post-War. It was later sold to the Port of Bristol Authority, and finally purchased for preservation in 1975. After being stored for 13 years it arrived on the SVR in January 1988.
