About the Wddo(h) freight wagons

Open freight wagons of the Wddo(h) type belong to a group of two-axle wagons designed for transporting bulk goods that do not require protection from weather conditions. Their simple and robust construction made them suitable for hauling coal, ores, gravel and other loose materials.

During Era IV these wagons were commonly seen in freight trains operated by the Polish State Railways across the country. Some variants were equipped with a brake cabin for a brakeman, a characteristic feature of older freight wagons still in service during the second half of the 20th century.
