After some further research, what we know as as C&S 8308, i think is in fact the C&S 8256. this would account for the different end buffers in different pictures of the car. at the time the cars were leaving the RGS in 1942, the car numbers could have easily been swapped, perhaps because the then RGS 8715 was in better condition thus more desirable to keep, and the RGS 8714 was not, possibly due to leaks around the roof hatches? later photos show no roof hatches.
