Signwriting details - The "Empty to Pinnox Junc" is authentic for Chatterley Whitfield waggons, as that was where the private colliery line met the national rail network [LMSR].
The numbers are the tare [ie empty] weight in Tons : cwt [hundredweights] : quarters ...
So ... Six tons 7 cwt 2 quarters [so, in round figures, about 6 and a third tons in old money]

Part of a wheel bearing case from NCMM 1986.

I think the marks are MR for Midland Railway and the numbers refer to the dimensions.
