Clifford Chambers Sidings: smjc100a

Close up showing four of the side-tipping wagons standing on the loading bank siding in Goldicote Cutting

A close up of image 'smjc100' shows four of the side-tipping wagons standing on the loading bank siding in Goldicote Cutting. The side-tipping wagons are similar to those seen used by railway contractors albeit much smaller. They are however very robust being made out of very thich timber. Note the dumb buffers are continuations of the frame, the links and the extremely short wheelbase indicating that horse power was the only means of propulsion.
