Nearholmer Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 The Southern one, hauled by an ED, looks like a TPO train, so possibly Royal Mail, rather than railway parcels, although I’m pretty sure that some trains conveyed both. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milnthorpe June 1967 The leading coach (a BSK ?) is on B4 bogies - Seems awfully early for that, especially for a 2nd Class vehicle !

RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted May 14, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 14, 2021 The 2 coaches are ex-works and no doubt being delivered somewhere; the mk1 refurbishment program started in 1966 and I believe B4s were fitted to the refurbished coaches for 100mph running. But a steam hauled mk1 with B4 bogies is worthy of comment... 1 4 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Bridge Southern Bogie B Van 1981 I don't think I've ever seen such a clean Van B. I wonder what that panel of script above the left-hand buffer is? Not noticed anything like that before on one of these. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
