GWR 2504 Milk Tank Wagon
From SVR Wiki
Milk tanks were privately owned by dairies and mounted on railway owned chassis. This 6 wheel GWRGreat Western Railway chassis, type MILTANK, was built in 1932 at Swindon and carries a 3000 gallon "glass lined" (vitreous enamelled) steel tank, originally supplied for United Dairies.
It was acquired in 1995 by The GWR 813 Preservation Fund, arriving on the SVRSevern Valley Railway in November of that year from Swansea Landore Diesel Depot where it had been used as a waste oil carrier.[1]
Photographed stored at Bewdley, awaiting restoration.
