Outside the Devil's Porridge museum in Eastriggs are two railway exhibits. The camouflage painted standard gauge 0-6-0 fireless locomotive is very visible from the road See image 48483 but this narrow gauge wagon on the other side of the building might be overlooked. As the Longtown-Gretna-Eastriggs complex was nine miles long with a fleet of over forty locomotives there must have been hundreds of railway wagons in use there at the height of munitions production.
