Dear Sir, Info taken from A.M.Ford's Pullman profile No 1 The twelve wheel cars on page 59 gives the details about The New Century Bar. Built 1917 as Third Class car No 5 and in 1946 rebuilt into 'Trianon' for use on the Golden Arrow then re named The New Century Bar for use on the Dover Ostend boat train then again in 1946 renamed Trianon and back in service on the Golden Arrow, For model purposes a seven car train could be composed of:- 1 Third class brake parlour. 2 Third class kitchen. 3 Third class parlour 4*The New century bar* 5 First class parlour. 6 First class kitchen. 7 Observation car or brake first parlour. There are four books upto now by Ford on Pullman Profiles which give paint details and lots of photos, some coach roofs were dark and some pristine white when ex works. I have eight and twelve wheeled Pullmans in 0 gauge and could send you e mail photos if you were interested. James Brodie.
