Most BR departmental (non-revenue earning wagons) were provided with aquatic codes and these were known as the Fishkind. Aquatic names enabled the operating staff to allocate resources to jobs. The ballast hopper wagon designated Trout by BR had its origins in the 1920s. Two batches of BR Trout wagons were constructed by Metropolitan-Cammell Ltd. to Diagram 1/580. DB992035-56 were constructed at Lot 2118 between May and June 1949. These BR Trout wagons featured a side and centre discharge for ballast and were unfitted. This Trout Ballast Hopper wagon model features box sections in the vertical ribs. The hook couplings enable easier coupling of other rolling stock and locomotives on your layout. Stanchions support the wagon. A handbrake wheel is also featured. This model comes in a BR livery.
