Summary

Description
English: This British Railways va, which is on display at Buckfastleigh on the South Devon Railway, is not all it seems. It is a Great Western Railway Mink, number 125814 but is displayed as British Railways' number 753100, the prototype of which was the first of 100 vans built at Swindon in1949 for BR but to an earlier GWR design. To further complicate matters, it is fitted with vacumm brakes but carries the grey colour normally used to distinguish unfitted wagons.
