BR Rectank Wagon ADB909069

The Rectank is an extremely useful wagon. 

Based on a Lowmac wagon, it was modified by British Rail at Laira works in Plymouth to carry the engine from a Class 50 diesel locomotive, a task it will soon undertake when the engine from the Devon Diesel Society's Class 50 No D402 is removed for overhaul.

It was extensively repaired and outshopped in 'as new' condition in February 2011.
