BR Mk1 Brake Second (BS)

 E43147, built by BR York in 1951

These high capacity non gangwayed coaches were used extensively on busy suburban commuter services.

Our example was used on trains into and out of London King’s Cross. Since arrival on the SDR, part of the former luggage compartment has been converted for use by wheelchair users. Its lack of corridor means that it is generally only used on the second train set during the height of the season.
