B&MR 99766 4 plank Open Goods Wagon
The only surviving vehicle from the Brecon and Merthyr Tydfil Junction Railway, this four plank open was built in 1902 by Renshaws of Stoke-On-Trent as B&M number 197.
197 was one of 55 B&M steel framed opens fitted with 'OK' oil axle boxes and buffers by the GWR at the 1923 grouping and one of only three to survive beyond the 1930s, eventually being condemned and apparently sold to the War Department or Admiralty in 1944.
Hidden from public view within the Royal Navy's Armament Depot at Gosport for over 40 years, it was bought at auction by the The GWR 813 Preservation Fund in 1990.[1]
