Info

The VDA conversions either carried EWS maroon or Kronospan blue. Unlike the OBA/OCA conversions, data panels and numbers were carried on the ends. Numbers also carried in various places on the floor edge or solebar depending type of stanchion pocket fitted. 200731 showing the tapered stanchion and EWS maroon livery Elgin Yard, 3 rd August 2011 both these photos show VDA conversions from lot 3855 (above) and 3908 (below) 210144 showing the square section stanchion and faded Kronospan blue livery Elgin Yard, 3 rd August 2011 In total there were 171 conversions and were all eventually put in store at various locations, if not having been scrapped earlier, when the KFA conversions came into use in 2007. Hopefully I’ve done justice to these wagon types, if not let me know and I’ll pass it on. A future Wagon Review will feature the later KFA Ferrywagon conversions and the latest Rover cube conversions, the latter though I have yet to see. 37
