Some LDPs were transferred last week with PN after being on hire to SCT for quite a few months.

An usual cross shot of a 60 year old 42 class and LDP004.

A pair of wells, now owned by PN.  Here is CQWY 5027.

Bulk Loading Railroad Transport

I haven't photoed one of these from above before, and was surprised to see a top loading hatch.

RRTU 004093-9 is a 4FG9 coded box.  I don't think the top loading would work very well considering the angle of repose for most product, but still could be handy if not required to fill to the brim.

Enjoy
