Salt Wagons

Salt Wagons, also known as Fish Trucks or simply Vans (also called Box Cars '''in US narrations), are used to carry salt, fish and produce across the Island of Sodor. They are often used on Arthur's Branch Line or with The Flying Kipper. In more recent seasons, the salt wagons have lost their faces. '''

They first appeared in the second season, and have made infrequent appearances since then until the switch to CGI. Their final appearance was in the twelfth season episode, Best Friends.

Salt wagons are painted white, cream, rusty brown or dark grey with grey roofs.
