Caption: Type 1a - Open quarrymen's carriages built from 1867.

These vehicles were little better as conveyances than slate wagons, being small unsprung four-wheeled cars fitted with seats but with no protection from the weather. They were open two-compartment vehicles built rather reluctantly by the FR when Captain Tyler refused to allow the quarrymen to be carried in slate waggons. Boyd states that 32 were available for use in 1871. Photo by J. Owen of Newtown
