Wagon Plates

Railway Companies/Manufacturers identification plates, principally from wagons being broken up at Arnott Young's (formerly Beardmore) at Dalmuir, Clydebank in the eighties. The sidings used to store the wagons prior to breaking were alongside the site of the former Dalmuir Riverside Station of the Caledonian Railway's Lanarkshire & Dunbartonshire line.
