OCY, NQOY, RQBY Container Flat Wagons During the early 1970's and in response to the changes in worldwide transportation, the NSW Public Transport Commission (PTC) embarked on a major container wagon building programme. A total of 560 63' container wagons were built over a six year period in 9 contracts. These wagons were suitable for carrying 3 x 20' containers or 1 x 40' container and 1 x 20' container or two 25' refrigerated containers. In 1974-75 Commonwealth Engineering, Granville were awarded two contracts in the OCY programme, the first was for the wagon series numbered 14901 to 14950 and delivered in PTC Blue. The second contract was for the wagon series numbered 15001 to 15070 and delivered in PTC Indian Red. They were fitted with high speed, one piece, bogies meant these wagons were suitable for attaching to passenger trains. Commencing in the mid-80s the SRA started to recode some NQOYs to NQOF and NQPY. These wagons had their 2CM bogies replaced with 3 piece roller bearing types and were used for Intrastate loading. During the early 1990s further modifications were undertaken, tare weight reduction with sections of steel deck sheeting and the equipment boxes removed and the container locks were upgraded to marine type twist locks. These wagons were recoded NQSY and NQBY and later migrated into the NRC fleet in 1995, they were again recoded to RQSY and RQBY. With the formation of Pacific National in 2002 all NRC and FreightCorp (FC) wagons were pooled together with the FC wagons retaining their N coding prefix.
