Grain Wagon at Omagh

[GNRi1959]

Pictured is a typical grain wagon at Omagh, they worked there every day next the convent siding where Scotts Mill driver Eddie McAleer would draw grain away to Scotts Mill on a daily basis. This 4 wheel wagon is similar to Diagram 19 in the IRRS Wagon book, although it was a 6-wheeler. The steps and the shuts are similar however the 'top fillers were removed' and sheeted over.
