WAGR XG Coal Wagon Hopper

WAGR XG Coal Wagon Hopper

West Australian XG Coal Wagon. Set of five. Updated for TS12 and working in T:ANE.

Thank you John_SB for giving me permission.

This class was built from 1977 to 1983 both for the W.A.G.R and also for other users originally as coal hoppers.
The two other users were the State Energy Commission of Western Australia (SECWA) and Worsley Alumina. The largest
owner of the wagons, in fact, being SECWA. The first batch (20701-20722) was built in 1977 for W.A.G.R. with
20801-20817 being turned out for SECWA in the same year.

XG20818-20834 for SECWA were built in 1978 with 20835-20859 following in 1979. Another batch (20723-20736) were built
for Worsley Alumina in 1982 whilst the last group (20860-20879) were built for SECWA in 1983. In 1984 the W.A.G.R.
converted all of its(20701-20722) to standard gauge by changing the bogies and reclassified them WXG.

The next twist in the story follows in 1984 when 20802-4/7, 20811-4/9, 20822 were converted to XGA class wheat
hoppers with a fibreglass roof whilst still being owned by SECWA. 20801/5/6, 20808-20810, 20815-8, 20820/1
followed in 1986. There then followed a bewildering series of changes and reclassifications with some wagons
ending up back where they had started. At some point the standard gauge WXGs also got involved.
