Sheppards (Coals and Metals) Limited: misc_kt386

The company also operated a wagon fleet, the solitary references are in the wagon registers record the transfer that of some of J & N Nadim wagons which were repainted. A model has been produced that can be replicated by using transfers made by Powsides (www.pwesides.co.uk) their cartalogue number is 171. Trading as Sheppards Coals Ltd, the very descriptive lettering on the wagon side shows that they were successors to J & N Nadin and Co. Ltd and that branches were located at Coventry, Leamington,(Avenue station) Warwick and Kenilworth. From the model, the source of which is not known, they were painted red with white letters shaded black.
