Geoff's Wagons is believed to be the work of well known HRCAA member Geoff Taylor of Sydney, Australia. The wagon identification includes Bardwell Valley, a suberb of Syney and close to Geoff's home. D.T.R. or D.T.A. (?) Workshops is unexplained - unless you know better?
Update :
The following note kindly sent by an Australian enthusiast, confirming that Geoff Taylor was indeed the creator of Geoff's Wagons.
The papers on the wagons were definitely made by Geoff Taylor that he put on damaged rolling stock, mainly for his own layout. Prior to Geoff going into care he sold off most of his trains etc and after his death the rest were dispersed. I remember him designing and printing papers for rolling stock to restoring old vans and wagons. He'd had a professional career in typesetting and printing, later enjoying it as a creative outlet with his trains. If think I've a store of his wagon papers still.
