Conscious of not wanting to go too far of topic below is a picture from left of J M Designs pre 1953 covered van , Provincial Wagons post 1953 covered van and last Provincial Wagons post 1953 covered van but ‘fitted’ brake blocks on all wheels and round hand brake wheel as they would look running with Vacuum brakes . I certainly will be ordering a LMA van or Two for variety whn they are available.

I am also discovering some wonderful gems in that IRRS flickr site there is fabulous one of a H van 18828 in green with Vacuum brakes with sliding doors by Gerard McGowan , which like you I had read about but never seen picture of one . Many thanks to Ciaran Cooney of the IRRS for painstakingly taking the time to scan these pictures , while some of them are just ordinary rolling stock photos and would not appeal to many they provide a wealth of information for the modeller .

They were moved to Clonmel and then a few at a time to Limerick works to be coverted to Ballast wagons in the late 1990's

I think the Dolimite wagons 26612 -26627 were the same chassis too very similar wagon to the ballast /gypsum.

Great news they will look great with supertrain and Black and Tan locos I will be participating. They will look even better in a mixed set with CIE oil wagons which is the way they operated , hint hint nudge nudge …………….

A great example of thrift by the railway and re cycling repurposing of rolling stock 1950s bodies on 1960s underframes which lasted until the end of the beet in 2005 . -

Always with brake vans the latter double beet wagons post 1985 were mounted on Lancashire flats which were vacuum brake and did not require a brake van but the earlier single bullied corrugated wagon were loose coupled and always required a brake van . -
