Project: Railfreight continues to make progress with its collection

摘要

IN THE last issue of Railways Illustrated, we reported on the purchase of OBA Wagon 110443 from East Midlands Railway as part of the Project: Railfreight initiative. Owner Kieran Fallows explained the background and aims of the project. Growing up in the late 1990s and early 2000 in the East Midlands, he developed an interest in the variety of freight stock, with a particular liking forthe Railfreight era and its distinctive appearance. In 2018 Mr Fallows become a traction and rolling stock technician at Loram in Derby, working on the Network Rail infrastructure monitoring fleet. The depotwas home to several redundant items of rolling stock inherited from British Rail. Included among these was internal user VCA van 024988 (200406 in TOPS coding).
