This 10 ton Goods Van was built at the St Rollox works of the Caledonian Railway and was originally numbered 4543. It also saw service as LMSLondon Midland & Scottish Railway 304543 following Grouping in 1923, and was later used by Cadbury’s, from where it arrived on the SVRSevern Valley Railway in June 1967.
