Prototype Information
25 JIA china clay hopper wagons were built in 2011 by Arbel Fauvet of France, which were ordered to replace the existing PBA 'Clay Tiger' vehicles which had been employed on long distance services between the West Country to the Midlands.
This relatively small fleet operated a weekly service between Cornwall and Bescot, exclusively for the transport of china clay.
Originally delivered in a distinctive blue and white Imerys livery, they were very quickly covered in layers of grime - providing a distinctive weathered appearance in active service!
The wagons carry Kaolin, or ‘china clay’ as it is commonly called, which is a hydrated aluminium silicate crystalline mineral formed over many millions of years by the hydrothermal decomposition of granite rocks. Highly valued for it's whiteness, it is used in the production of porcelain and other fine china.
