These wagons appear frequently in photographs of the WC&PR trains, often along with Baldwin wagons. As gas production at Clevedon gas works would have required several wagonloads of coal every day and given round-trip times to the collieries even the possible 30 wagon fleet of Clevedon Gas wagons would only be just sufficient if deliveries were arriving very promptly!
It is unclear how many wagons the company operated at a time, as only the 1932 batch appear in photographs we have seen where the numbers are clearly visible. Numbers 21-30 may have replaced older wagons rather than supplementing them. However records of the Charfield accident in 1928 list two of the Clevedon company's wagons as being destroyed, these wagons noted as being painted red and a sketch of one of these wagons shows the lettering placed in an arc over the side door. While this first model replicated one of the well photographed 1932 batch we will look at producing one of the older wagons in the future.
A later batch of wagons was ordered from Gloucester during WW2 under the name of the combined Clevedon & Yatton Gas Company. These wagons carried small wartime standard lettering and it is likely they would have been sent straight to pool service, so these war wagons quite possibly never visited Clevedon or Yatton.
