Orange-Brown Non-Corridor Coaches

The Orange-Brown Non-Corridor Coaches are bogie coaches usually used on branch lines and Main Line stopping trains. On a few occasions, they have also been seen on fast and express trains.

Basis
The coaches have no known specific basis, however their designs are typical of suburban coaches used in the United Kingdom between the 1920s and 1960s.

Livery
The coaches have terracotta bodies with black wheels, valences and bufferbeams and light grey roofs.

During Clive Spong's tenure as illustrator, their roofs were changed to black and they were given a yellow stripe along each side of their bodies.
