First Class Interior Views

A First Class compartment in 205025. Although the extra "luxury" over Standard/Second/Third Class is not what it once was, each seat still has the traditional antimacassar, albeit thin paper rather than laundered linen! photograph by James Kent

Standard Class Interior Views

A Standard Class compartment in the Driving Trailer car. This was originally a First Class compartment but has been downgraded in recent years to provide increased Standard Class accommodation. photograph by James Kent

A second view of the Standard Class compartment. There is just one, all the remaining Standard Class accommodation being in open saloons. photograph by James Kent

The Standard Class seating and luggage racks as fitted to the units when new (though subsequently re-upholstered) as seen in unit 205012. The ceiling strip lights were a much welcomed improvement over the dingy light bulbs originally installed. photograph by James Kent

The further modernised Standard Class interior of unit 205205. Note the air of spaciousness when the luggage racks are moved from above the seats to the coach wall and the plastic laminate in place of the original wood veneer. Available luggage space is, however, a little less, though probably more useable! photograph by James Kent
