The major difference from the 1927 design being that the saddle and cradle timbers, as well as the end stanchions were abandoned, opting instead to anchor the tank to the underframe by a central steel anchor of riveted or welded construction - the so-called anchor mounting. The supporting saddles were also fabricated from steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA change also took place with the drawgear, in order to eliminate the use of drawgear cradles which were difficult to maintain. The drawgear springs were placed behind each headstock and this design became known as short drawgear. Charles Roberts was one builder of vehicles of this type using mild steel welded barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e(\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInformation from -\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePETROLEUM TANK WAGONS OF BRITAIN by R.TOURRET\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe majority were built 1949 and into the early 1950s with Class B tanks being the predominant type to be built.
