What is a bogie sulphate wagon?
Bogie Sulphate Wagons were, at the time, famed for being the largest open wagons of their type, but their demise was not quite so glamorous.
Eighty bogie sulphate wagons were built in the 1930s to transport fertiliser from the I.C.I works at Billingham in the North East, but as trade fell off, many wagons ended their days carrying refuse around the Kings Cross area throughout the 1960s.
The wagons are distinctive and feature a steel construction, external skeleton, side-loading doors and bogie wheels.
