A Swindon Works image (negative 5CR 211) showing the Guards area of brand new Cross-Country Driving Motor Brake Composite Sc51786. I have this dated as 18 January 1960 however the vehicle was new to Kittybrewster on 12 December 1959. This was taken from the rear of the vehicle looking forwards. The layout of the van of this batch two vehicle is identical to the first batch. British Railways.
18th January 1960
A Swindon Works image (negative 5CR 212) showing the Guards area of brand new Cross-Country Driving Motor Brake Composite Sc51786. I have this dated as 18 January 1960 however the vehicle was new to Kittybrewster on 12 December 1959. There were a few detail differences with the second batch (compare with 5CR 71). In both cases they used the same moquette pattern as the passenger saloon, this vehicle has a back for the seat on the right, the first batch didn't. This batch has three heater controls (a 'local' for each of the two on the vehicle and a guards 'through' control for the whole train). The first batch did not have the through control system and the controls would be in the cab. British Railways.
18th January 1960
A Swindon Works image (negative 5CR 213) showing the luggage area of brand new Cross-Country Driving Motor Brake Composite Sc51786. I have this dated as 18 January 1960 however the vehicle was new to Kittybrewster on 12 December 1959. This looks from the guards area to the rear of the vehicle, and is almost identical to the equivalent image from a first batch vehicle (5CR 75). British Railways.
22nd March 1960
A Swindon Works image (negative 5CR 189) showing the interior of brand new Cross-Country Driving Motor Second Sc51794. I have this dated as 22 March 1960 however the vehicle was new to Kittybrewster in 20 February 1960. This one of the second batch, and differences from the first batch (see image 5CR 82) was different side panel/ceiling formica, moquette and curtain material. The luggage rack lamps lacked the silver rings, and there was a heater thermostat on the partition. Also the nearest rows of seats lacked the headrest section, probably to increase visibility out the cab windows for the passengers in that saloon. British Railways.
