I bought the 2015 Hornby catalogue today and browsing came across this wagon. They are a must for my collection. Why, well I remember the locos being shunted around the factory and onto the main line in my younger days. Also later on in life I worked for them in Prescot, Lancashire.

I asked my local shop to order 3 of these for me, unfortunately they have just contacted me to say that they are already obsolete, but Hornby have some available on their website. I managed to get three and was surprised it is free delivery, so even though they are dearer than on the major mail order model sites they have worked out cheaper. :D
