This close up of image 'lnwrlave1380' shows Private Owner mineral wagons from two different companies based in Reading standing in the exchange sidings. In all probability these wagons are transporting coal from the North Warwickshire coal fields as both companies would be heavy users of coal. Up to the out break of the Second World War employing ones own wagons was very cost efficient for any business that depended heavily on transporting either coal or finished goods.
