The final cool storage vans introduced by the W.A.G.R. were the three WBR class vans built in 1967. They were numbered 23431-23433. In general terms they were similar to the earlier WAR class vans but used the standard 42'-0" chassis rather than the 36'-0" one used in the WA series vans. In 1987 23431 was written off followed by 23433 in 1988. However, number 23433 was then written back as an SB class van in 1988 and 23432 was similarly reclassified in the same year. The WAGR outline diagram is shown below. |
