I've added drawings of these from 1902 Locomotive Magazine to the Resources section. Rather disappointing that they weren't automatic braked; the Lancashire and Yorkshire had similar wagons, but vacuum fitted. It's also interesting that several railways in UK (including Ireland then) were producing high capacity stock around that time, but more than 50 years later the 1850s design of creaking clanking slow unbraked 10/15 tonners were still crawling round the networks.
