LNER Thompson 59'6" corridor compo coaches

Sep 19, 2006 1 Replies

Hello all,



Trying to solve a puzzle re. the above, and none of my many books of railway photos seems to be giving any real clue; were the corridor and compartment sides identical in terms of both (a) no. of oval loo windows and (b) provision of "plain" as against "toplight" full-size windows? I'm assuming that the overall appearance - discounting the different lengths of 1st ans 2nd clss compartments - is *broadly* similar to the 63' corridor 2nd, but with 2 rather than 3 full-size windows in the middle section between the two doors. Right or wrong? All feedback very welcome, as ever, and thanks in advance for light shed on the matter.
