VL VKEX T2a - 1987+

From March 1980 through to July 1980 ELX wagons numbered 9, 18, 26, 27, 28, 31, 34 and 49 had their doors removed and timber bolsters fitted to the floor and recoded VOEX for Steel Slab traffic between Albury, NSW and Long Island, Vic. These wagons never went on the Standard Gauge, while at Albury loads where moved from SG wagons to BG wagons rather than bogie exchange, about 1982/83 the side bodies where removed and stanchions fitted like the VODX wagons. From March 1984 VOBX wagons numbered 42, 53, 62 and 65 where converted to VOEX however this time the sides where lowered and numbered 9 to 12. Going into 1987 all VOEX where recoded VKEX and fitted with extra stanchions. The extra stanchions may have been fitted in 1987 at North Melbourne Workshops when they where recoded or between 1989 to 1991 during their lift period and repaint at North Bendigo Workshops, at this stage the model is based on recode only.

This Model represents the Type 2 VKEX wagons numbered 9 from June 1987 on Broad Gauge, Step's created by Zec.
