SDJR 6 wheeled composite with luggage compartment - model.

SDJR 6 wheeled composite with luggage compartment - model.
This carriage, had it had a single arc roof profile, would have been of the type seen behind No. 33 at Templecombe Upper, in plates 96 & 97 of Mitchell & Smith's Bournemouth to Evercreech Junction. Plate 35 of their Burnham to Evercreech volume has another view.
One of my drawings is of a very similar 4 wheeled carriage which my notes say was redrawn from a larger scale drawing in the HMRS Journal Vol.8 No.6. This is clearly a 6-wheeler according to plate 97.
13.5.2013 - I am really amazed at the interest that these photos of 40 year-old Triang clerestory carve-ups have attracted. They are not exactly high quality, with hand-painted crests and lettering and those GWR grab handles. Anyway I am pleased I bothered to get them out of their boxes, put them in front of a camera and uploaded them. Thanks for your 'views' - 164 on this one - when on Flickr.

Nouchetdu38 has particularly liked this photo
