    Before I was banned from the other place I posted a pic of a Camping coach at Rannoch, which I took in the 80's. I fully expected it to have been turned into firewood a long time ago, but it seems not!

    After a lot of reaserch we discovered it's a LNWR Corridor 7 comp 3rd, of 1900's era, making it a sole survivor.

    Only the number is now not known, and build date.

    Has anyone got a drawing of this type of coach on the above link? Í could only find a picture of a gauge 1 model of a LNWR 6 compartment 1st, but nothing on the 7comp 2/3rd.

    And they also say it's a 5 comp coach, so I'd take their information with a pinch of salt.

    This is a model of a First Class Version of the Rannoch coach.

    I think this is another LNWR Corridor 3rd, but from the corridor side.
