    There is a list of the remaining examples and there locations on the VCT register. If in the search options you choose GWR as builder and Insp as type in the search bit that'll give you the full list. If you want to see all the remaining inspection saloons just remove the GWR build from the search to get the full list.

    You need to put GWR in the 'Designed For' field and not the 'Builder' field (leave it blank). Use 'Insp' in the 'Carriage Type' field.
    Works for me - I get 7 matches.

    Hope this helps

    I don't seem to be able to find the allocated BR-WR location for 80969. Anybody know?
