In 1948 the Railway Executive appointed the Ideal Stocks Committee to report on the most ideal stock for probable traffic in 1950. For general merchandise traffic, the 12 ton van and the 13 ton open were the preferred design. The vans were to have hinged rather than sliding doors and 10% of open wagons should be fitted with sheet support bars.
