In 1925, the CGFC ordered thirty-five large boxcars, with a brakeman's cabin, with two large side doors to facilitate loading and unloading from S.A. Energie de Marcinelle (Belgium) and they were assigned the numbers HG 611 to 645. Over the years, some were converted into tank cars, and others into auxiliary cars.
In 1979, when FGC was created, the HG 630 changed its functions, being assigned to the Fixed Installations maintenance service. Later on, in the Martorell workshops themselves, it was transformed into a flat wagon for the workshop's own functions, where it was numbered as 60.709.
Although it is not preserved in its original closed wagon form, its historical interest lies in the preservation of the frame structure and the Diamond bogies, practically in their original state. Restored in 2023, it can currently be seen at the FGC Espai Via Mètrica in Martorell Central.
