Green to Red.

With its LNER apple green livery long since removed, 47522 “Doncaster Enterprise” now sports parcels red livery as it passes Tanyard Bay, Parton on 17 September 1994 with a Carlisle – Sellafield flask train.

 

At this time barrier wagons were still used and in this case they were redundant HEA 13.2te coal hoppers, of which there are four in this train. However the second, third and eighth wagons have had their hopper structures removed to create the first bespoke barrier wagons. This work was carried out by Currock wagon repair depot at Carlisle, the new 11.5te flat wagon's TOPS designation changing to RNA.
