LMS, Stanier D1981 Coronation Scot 57′ RTO, 9003 – Era 3

In response to the LNER’s ‘Coronation’ sets the LMS Board announced the advent of a similar train, the ‘Coronation Scot’. All of the ‘Coronation Scot’ Coaches were eventually scrapped, beginning from withdrawals in 1962, with the exception of two of the RK vehicles; 30088 and 30106. These two coaches were converted into Inspection Saloons and both survive to this day as preserved examples.
