A brown and blue Hornby Series Trolley Wagon No.2 (GW), introduced in ~1928.
Description
The long eight-wheeler "No.2" wagon has a brown bed and buffers, two black four-wheel bogeys, and two blue lumber supports with chains (as on the No.2 Lumber Wagon).
The wagon seems to be an exact match to the illustration in the 1928 Hornby Book of Trains, including the red-drop-shadowed gold "GW" lettering on the side, and the placement of the rectangular "Hornby Series" sticker near the centre of the lower payload area.
