circa April 1957
A Derby Works image (negative 57/470) showing the ends of TC W59000 (left) and DMBS W50050 (right) when new circa April 1957. The gear on the end of the centre car is for the communication cord. Note the far side has a footstep and handrail for staff to reach the reset 'butterfly', on the closest side they are not fitted but there are bolts where they should be. The writing on the lower corner reads in different rows 'C' (for composite, the vehicle type) 'TRIPLE' (the formation), 'S.P. 3-59' ('Shopping Proposal' - its next works date), 'NEW - 2001' (2001 is the code for Derby Works), '11-3-57' and then a paint date which is not readable.

circa April 1957
An official image (Derby Works negative 57/468) showing the first class areas in a trailer composite (thought to be W59000) from the first batch of Derby suburban triple sets circa April 1957. Taken in the smoking compartments looking through to the non-smoking, behind the solid partition was not the end of the vehicle but a second class compartment. The seat material was the same pattern used on other builds such as the West Riding and West Cumberland Derby Lightweights, although in third class not first. British Railways.
