On going through some photos I noticed just a bit of a van. Was this a B&MR one? Can anyone add any more to the image?

Modellers should note the angle of the buffer ram...

I believe that it is Andrew and it's very similar to this on taken in Brecon in the early 1920s (also an extract from Ken Nunn , this time H3230
Stephen Bell (Cambrian51 here) has supplied these internal dimensions
Length 14'6"
Breadth 6' 10.5"
Height 6' 1"
W/B 9 '
Carrying capacity 6T
On thie basis of the pics alone and assuming a 9' W/B I built this 4mm scale model on the 1980s
This was without the benefit of Stephen's dimensions and, as can be seen, the capacity.

Removal of some of the perspective by using GIMP.
