Description
With the eventual exception of D2119, these coaches were the most numerous to any one design on the LMS. They were typical, or even archetypal, of the early Stanier stock with characteristic sliding ventilators with small fixed elements, toilet windows with a fall back top section, shell vents and transverse cover strips over the roof panel joints. As a general service coach they would have been seen over the whole of the LMS and BR(LMR). No layout of the period should be without one — or several!
