GHC Class high-sided coal wagon.

These ten wagons were converted from classes GM and GH. They had no side doors and were intended for unloading via tippler. Although I do not know of any written record that shows that GHC18634 was reclassified to GH, the photo clearly shows the "C" painted out.

Details of the class are given below:

1976 18407, 18618, 18634, 18665, 18666, 18737, 18772, 18844, 18849 converted from GH
