From the list of our stock I reckon that
The Walrus hoppers, Dogfish Hopper, Shark Ballast plough, Grampus and Borail would suit.
The Borail does have a modern modification with the Side Rail lifters, easily removed though. (original offload by leaning bars against the wagon side and tipping rails off )

Thanks for the photo's link and help there I am in the process of putting stock together although I do know one little extra that around here Black wasn't used as much as Olive Drab (weird Colour a very dirty green ) but still every little bit of info helps
