Class GA open wagons
|
This class of 761 wagons was the first group of four wheel wagons to dispense with the N.Z.R. standard underframe. They were built in both the UK and USA. The American wagons (5948 - 6157 built by American Car and Foundry) had slight detail differences from the UK built examples. In comparison to the near contemporary GB class they were rather larger in cubic capacity and had a steel rather than wooden underframe. This made them quite long-lived with large-scale withdrawals not occurring until the GM class wagons were introduced in the early fifties. |
