A fascinating photo. I have today researched that GLM as on many of the wagons stands for Gueret, Llewellyn & Merrett, Ltd. |

Spillers Flour Mill - structural design by Oscar Faber. This firm also undertook structural design for Spillers mill at Avonmouth Dock, Port of Bristol, and a further large mill at Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Joel Spiller founded the milling company in Bridgwater, Somerset, in 1829. The business was taken over by Dalgety in 1979. |

One of the wagons is marked Llewellyn Cyfarthfa. I have have found that they operated two concerns at Troedyrhiw, Merthyr Tydfil. The Castle Pit and the Berry Level and a controlling interst was held by Welsh Associated Collieries. |

Maurice Hi. Would you know if there is a reference book with details of the various ownerships of South Wales Private Owners coal wagons? |
