Motor Luggage Van 68010. Ten of these battery electric units were built 1951 - 1961 for use on the boat trains from London Victoria to Dover and Folkestone. One or two of them were usually coupled to the front of 12 car EMUs. Later reclassified as Class 419, they were all withdrawn in 1991/92 when the boat trains ceased running with the closure of Dover Western Docks. This example is one of 3 preserved at the Eden Valley Railway at Warcop. Tue18Sep12
