Of the 275 LLV/GLV Louvre Vans delivered by both Tulloch Ltd. of Rhodes, NSW & Hadfields (A.E.Goodwin) between 1958 - 1963, some 60 vans were converted & re-coded to TLV from October 1959 to October 1963 for the cartage of Tinplate from Port Kembla to various canneries.
Commencing from October 1964 these vans were steadily re-coded to TLX, however by 1980 there were still some examples left in traffic with the TLV coding.
These TLV & TLX packs have been back-dated with new ends to represent these vans as they first came into service.
