Some more crusty wagons were visible in a siding and only viewable from a train ride. Highlights include a cut-n-shut double length Freightliner twin wagon; some Conflats, and who knows what else.

Lurking in a corner at The Greatest Gathering were these interesting crusty old wagons. One was an "Internal User" shunting runner wagon; and the other a large flat wagon marked "LUL Material Only".
