I have a complete run of pre war MRNs in bound volumes and the only carriage drawing in 1927 is in the March edition and is the fifth and last carriage drawing in a series of GWR prototype drawings by Captain F.H.G Layland-Barratt. This is though a corridor 1st /3rd composite.

Being in a bound volume it doesn't scan very well. I'll look back to 1926 for his earlier drawings but I think they too will be corridor as he talks about the five coaches being enough for a complete train. 

Thanks. This is just what I was looking for. 

I looked through the previous and several subsequent years and, in this quite long running series of GWR Prototype Drawings, there were only about three or four of actual carriages, the others included a brake third and a restaurant car with central kitchen and pantry and separate 1st and 3rd class dining saloons at either end, There was a suggestion that the drawings would allow a five coach express train to be built Apart from those there was a passenger brake van with no corridor connection but most of the drawings were of locos and some tenders. At around that time there was a separate sequence of goods wagon drawnings by a different author.
