Over the winter the boys in the Boston Lodge carriage works have been converting the line's original semi-open carriage 2020 into a closed vehicle which combines the functions of the brake / guard's van, catering facility, mobile generator and lavatory.
Himself took these pictures at Blodge a couple of weeks ago which show the exterior is more of less complete, which means with all the beading detail in place it's safe for me to start making the model.
This view of the other side of the carriage shows the generator which sits on a sliding platform within the compartment. A large pair of doors have yet to be fixed to the bodyside.
This shot of the progress fitting out the catering end of the vehicle shows the quality of the design and finish that the FR carriage team produce time after time.
