Claptowte Railway - Passenger Coach No 9

[David1226]

This is the eighth passenger coach for the Claptowte Railway out of a planned complement of fourteen. It is numbered number 9 but then I am not constructing the coaches in sequence. Up until now all of the coaches have been of a different design but this is a twin of the Brake/Third number 8, modified from a LGB Jackson Sharp Combine.. I shall not post here details of how this coach was built, instead I refer you to the link to coach number 8 for construction details.

Updated views of the coach having had first aid signs added 13.10.2022.

The management of the Claptowte Railway have initiated a training scheme whereby certain key personnel, with the emphasis on train guards, have received the necessary training to be certificated first aiders. The outcome is that all guards on Claptowte Railway are now fully trained. To that end all guard's vehicles on the line, that is all goods brake vans, all passenger brake coaches and the Engineering Department converted brake coach, have all been equipped with first aid boxes.

The first aid signs were created by downloading a free sign from t'internet, shrinking it to a suitable size, duplicating it in numbers by cut and paste, then printing on white card.
