REMARKS.<br />
Private Owners'<br />
Mineval Wagons.<br />
—<br />
Private owners' mineral<br />
wagons with<br />
bolted or unbolted<br />
springs, may, when<br />
loaded with goods<br />
traffic, travel at an<br />
average speed of 30<br />
miles per hour, provided<br />
that the<br />
trucks are in other<br />
respects suitable<br />
and that the load is<br />
well distributed.<br />
iWhen, however, such<br />
I wagons (in conjunction<br />
with an underrunner)<br />
convey<br />
loads which overhang<br />
the carrying<br />
wagon by 4 feet or<br />
more, they must not<br />
exceed an average<br />
speed of 25 miles<br />
per hour.<br />
(G. 28537).<br />
Foreign Railway Companies' or Private Owners' stock, when<br />
attached to trains booked to average speeds of over 30<br />
M.P.H., must conform to Coaching Stock requirements<br />
(page 147), except that wagons otherwise in order may<br />
have grease axle-boxes.<br />
t These vehicles may be attached to passenger trains only when loaded as specified for<br />
trains booked at over 45 M.P.H.<br />
