A "new" acquisition for the BBR, one of those nice Stroudley designed ex-LBSC Brake 3rd coaches by Dapol. We've had our eye on one of these for awhile. Colonel Stephens finally gave the approval for funds to be transferred from the mattress to complete the purchase. We can only hope this extra coach proves so popular, that it will increase patronage of the line. It was rather in need, as the lease ran out on the S&DJR 6 wheel coach which had to be returned to Highbridge for use on their railway. Perhaps it will be seen again someday when the S&DJR start up weekly services to Windrush Junction.
