GWR 98480 5 plank Open Goods Wagon

98480 was built in 1921 by Metropolitan-Cammell under contract to Diagram O18, Lot 868. It is a type ‘Open A’, signifying a 10-ton capacity open wagon with a sheet support (which it no longer has) but not equipped with vacuum brakes.

98480 later saw service on the Port of Bristol Authority’s Avonmouth Docks internal system, where it was numbered PBA 58194. It was acquired from there in 1981, arriving on the SVR on 19 February 1982. It is owned by The GWR 813 Preservation Fund.
