Steel-bodied mineral wagons were developed from the 1930s, with wagon builder Charles Roberts pioneering the slope-sided design. The first production wagons were outshopped in 1939, however the onset of World War Two halted private orders and so the bulk of the fleet was constructed to Ministry Of (War) Transport (MOT) orders. Designed to carry coal, the wagons had end, side, and sometimes bottom doors to aid their unloading. Construction continued until 1948 with all the MOT wagons in Britain transferring to British Railways following Nationalisation and most continued in service until the 1960s, joined by many that were repatriated from mainland Europe having been sent there to aid the war effort.
