The Pollen E set was in fact condemned at York in 1996 for preservation by the National Railway Museum. They are on loan to Great Western Society at Didcot.

There are 4 x 6-wheel wagons 85’6″ overall. The set was also operated as just the two end wagons.

Where you have it wrong is the end wagons were rebuilds of original broad Gauge wagons built in 1887.

The end wagons are therefore 110 years old in their main fabric!
