This bogie tanker is classified as a TEA wagon, with a tare weight of 26.6 tons. Now we all know that the railway runs on tea; by my calculations, this much hot brown liquid should keep a 12 mile steam railway like the GCR running for 3 weeks, 2 days, and 12.5 hours. Approximately.
Location: Quorn and Woodhouse
Original line: London Extension (Great Central Railway)
