Special Flat Wagon 906830 (telegraph type Flat ED) was built at Shildon in 1958.[1] These wagons were intended to transport large bulky loads, and were equipped with a flat timber floor and chaining down rings.
The SVR’s 3 Flat ED wagons, 906811, 906825 and 906830, were bought from BR by Universal Pictures and arrived on the SVR in July 1975, being used as mock carriages in the film The Seven-Per-Cent Solution. The Flat ED wagons are owned by SVR(H).[2]
A more detailed history of the three wagons may be found under 906811.
