Class QCB bogie bolster wagon

Two QCB class wagons (23507, 23555) were converted from QC in 1961. They had seven bolsters rather than the four of a standard class QC. In 1979 number 23555 was written off followed by 23507 in 1992. One other wagon QC class wagon was stencilled as a QCB but does not appear on the record cards as such. This was 23506 which had no bolsters at all in this condition so it doesn't match either the QC or QCB diagrams!. The photo below was taken in March 1969 and it is unknown how long the wagon was like this.
