8in. howitzer gun carriage on an Open B wagon at Swindon Works, c. 1914

The wagon has had its five plank body removed and has been branded for military traffic only. These specially adapted wagons were requested as soon as Britain entered the war in August 1914, with a total of 101 being supplied by Swindon
