Manufacturer description

Bardon Aggregates livery - White and Blue - (late 1990s till mid 2010s)

PHA/JGA Hopper Wagon

Produced by Cavalex Models

Built by W H Davis Limited of Shirebrook in 1990 for Bardon Hill Quarries (later renamed Bardon Aggregates), design code JG010B and numbered BHQ17130-17151. This was the third batch of wagons built by W H Davis for Bardon Hill Quarries and totalled 22 wagons.

A slightly different design to the first two batches with some visual differences being the revised hopper operating gear with prominent door actuators; the solebar and cast Y25 bogies.

In 1997 Bardon Hill Quarries merged with Camas Aggregates which saw the company renamed Aggregate Industries. The wagons were gradually repainted in a new livery, which featured the Aggregate Industries logo in blue alongside the green Bardon name.

These wagons can still be seen in service today working aggregates flows.

Catalogue listing

Cavalex Models has produced a model of the PHA/JGA Hopper Wagon in Bardon Aggregates' distinctive white and blue livery. This livery was used by Bardon Aggregates from the late 1990s to the mid 2010s.

The PHA/JGA Hopper Wagon was built by W H Davis Limited at Shirebrook in 1990, with 22 wagons produced for Bardon Hill Quarries. The design code for these wagons was JG010B and they were numbered BHQ17130-17151. This was the third batch of wagons constructed by W H Davis for Bardon Hill Quarries.

The PHA/JGA design featured revised hopper operating gear with prominent door actuators and cast Y25 bogies. In 1997, Bardon Hill Quarries merged with Camas Aggregates to become Aggregate Industries. As a result, the wagons were gradually repainted in a new livery featuring the Aggregate Industries logo in blue alongside the green Bardon name.

The model of the PHA/JGA Hopper Wagon in Bardon Aggregates livery is a representation of the wagon as it appeared during the period of initial privatisation. It is based on a real wagon that can still be seen in service today, working aggregates flows.
