Re: Re: Re: Doggie motor 11 M.

Not modelling (at least not yet), just trying to sort-out some ambiguities
in the rolling stock records (like the story about Mansard-roofed carriages
being converted to EMUs). The clues as to which 'group' 11 M belongs to are
whether the van section is panelled or matchboard, and whether there are
one or two panels between each pair of the first five compartments.
Unfortunately, both are seven-compartment carriages, one converted from a
five-compartment AC (First Class bogie car with Guards compartment, was
ADAD when built), and the other from a six-compartment AC.
Thanks for flip-flopping, but my eyes just aren't good enough to see the
detail; maybe someone else on that tour has a more side-on photo. 11 M was
scrapped in August the following year. My next 'project' is to find good
photos of each of the BC cars (unconverted Dogbox "M"s), many of which were
used as end-cars (being dual-coupled) on steam rail tours in the 1960s.

Thanks again Andrew !
