APCM Cemflo/PCV Powder Cement Wagon - Blue Circle Cement - Pack 4 Mark 5 Sleepers BSSP 4036Built between 1961 and 1965 for Associated Portland Cement Manufacturers (APCM), the Cemflo PCV wagons are probably best known for their use on trains of Blue Circle cement from Cliffe, in Kent, to Uddingston on the outskirts of Glasgow. During their working lives, they also supplied a number of other locations, including Aberdeen, Dewsbury, Dundee, Grangemouth, Sunderland, and Widnes. The last Cemflo PCV wagons were withdrawn from service in mid 1988.
