Yes, that's it. This slightly zoomed out version is more obvious!

[Cowley]

Ah go on then, I’ll have a go...



Any ideas?

 

[Cowley]

Clue - It’s not a unit.

 

[DanNCL]

Class 66?

 

[Cowley]

Class 66?

Not a 66. It’s actually quite a large area of the thing. It’s not really a closeup...

 

[DanTrain]

A 90?

 

[Cowley]

A 90?

No. Quite a long way from that.
If no-one gets near by this evening then I’ll expand the picture. The trouble is that I think that’ll make it really easy.

 

[DanNCL]

A 37?

 

[Cowley]

Not a 37 I’m afraid.

 

[DanNCL]

Class 20?

 

[Esker-pades]

Class 50?

 

[Cowley]

Hm no guys. It’s not actually a locomotive either (I may have said too much)

 

[DanNCL]

Mark 2?

 

[DanTrain]

Mk 1?

 

[Cowley]

Well folks here’s a slightly zoomed out version as none of the above guesses are correct so far...

I think that's a wagon of some sort. I'm going to guess a tank wagon (I've got no idea what their official name is!)

It is indeed a wagon Dan. It’s a certain type of wagon though and bearing in mind the area that I live in and also bearing in mind the colour of the stains on it then it’s probably reasonably easy to find on google.

Having just done some research into what the various types of wagons are actually called (I'm completely clueless when it comes to freight!) I'm going to guess a PCA wagon?

Hang on, let me look that up (I’m not sure myself really ).

 

[Cowley]

No not a PCA. It’s bigger than that and has bogies...

 

[DanNCL]

A PHA?

 

[Cowley]

Not a PHA. Something to do with white gold...

That stuff that comes from Cornwall eh Mr C?....China Clay NACCO tank wagon perhaps?

Phew . Yes that’s near enough. It’s a Nacco JIA. Caught by me lurking at the level crossing the other day.
Over to you.

 

[Ash Bridge]

Thanks Mr C, I'll have to offer the floor this time as I've nothing suitable to put up I'm afraid.

 

[DanNCL]

Have a go at this
