[edit] Background
Built Brown, Marshall & Co of Adderley Park in Birmingham. It is a single compartment closed carriage with knifeboard seating. It was initially restored to traffic in August 1958. Carried Cherry Read livery from end of the sixties. Another refurbishment saw its recent return to service
The carriage has now been painted in the Colonel Stephens livery of green with red ends, for use in The 1930's Train.
There is a possibility it may originally have been a second class vehicle
