BWE Met Saloon stock Sept 13, 2008 18:20:45 GMT

Post by metman on Sept 13, 2008 18:20:45 GMT

As we all know I am building a 1921 trailer and a 1913 driving motor car of ex-met saloon stock.

The 1913 DM had different equipments half British Thompson Houston (BTH) equipments and the other half British Westinghouse Equipments (BWE), these could not work together.

I have decided to use the BWE equipments. What do they look like. I have a photo* of one side but not the other.

Can anyone help?

Here is a BWE car, with underframe equipment showing-whats on the other side?

*typically, most photos of the stock are of BTH trains!!

There are some good drawings in this book too.
