  1. Computation—Except in the case of timber or as otherwise provided, where the use of a check wagon or a bogie wagon is necessary owing to the length or other nature of goods whereby they cannot be loaded in a four-wheeled wagon the following methods of charging will apply:

(a) A consignment of 4½ tons or more, loaded on a four-wheeled wagon and one check wagon provided, or loaded on a bogie wagon
(b) A consignment of less than 4½ tons loaded on a bogie wagon, or loaded on a four-wheeled wagon and one check wagon provided
(c) Check wagons additional to the wagons specified in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) hereof

No extra charge will be made on account of the check wagon or bogie wagon being necessary.
Charge as for 4½ tons at the appropriate rate for the commodity.
Charge for the additional check wagons used.

Separate consignments loaded in the same bogie wagon or in a four-wheeled wagon plus a check wagon by the same or different consignors at the one forwarding station to the same or different consignees at the one destination station will be grouped for the purpose of calculating the minimum of 4½ tons. Any weight deficiency to make up the minimum is to be apportioned equally between the consignments which required the use of such wagon(s).
