The 4-wheeled Flat ED was the smallest of the 6 types of BR Flat wagons with a capacity of just 12 tons, and was similar in appearance to the former LMS Deal truck. A total of 32 were built.<ref>[[Bibliography#Books|Rowland (1996)]] pp. 116, App. 4.</ref> These wagons were intended to transport large bulky loads, and were equipped with a flat timber floor and chaining down rings.<ref name=SB9>SVR Stock Book Ninth Edition</ref>

The Flat ED wagons are owned by [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC | SVR(H)]].<ref name=SB9/>
