Container flat FPA 200328. The number gives away the fact that this wagon started life as a VBA van.

You can find former vans of this type in various forms today - for example - OTA, RRA, ZCA.

Container flat FPA 400051. This wagon was built for this purpose.

British Rail only started building air braked vehicles for use other than power station coal in the late 1970's. Many types have similar underframes of a few basic types and have been converted to a wide number of uses.
