Based on the list on Tower Models

003 and 005 definitely suit 1952-1960

 

002 and 006 are technically the post-64 style, but could be backdated fairly easily with some small modelling effort.

When I ordered mine there was a cock up and I got the grey one instead of bauxite.  I repainted it in bauxite, modified the undersides to represent through piped (which most were) and backdated to pre-Tops:

Note the vacuum pipe and rodding.

The photos shown on the Tower models site   003 and 005 have electrification  symbols, does this put them into the  early 1960's rather than 1950's.

I note 002 does not have these ,so is this perhaps the  most suitable.

The GE and Woodhead routes were both electrified in the early 1950s...
