Just found this, which may be of interest to some in the light of the recent excellent 5BEL uploads and associated activity:

Thats a really interesting article. In the passengercam view of Audrey you will notice that there are rolled up window blinds. I wonder if this was a left over accessory from the war years.

The coaches are fascinating. I know there are some Southern Atlantics on Ukts. Might be fun one of these days to try modelling these coaches with a passengercam view for a Southern Belle and just ignore the LBE scenery. I can almost smell the leather and cigar smoke in them now. I dont think there have been any 6 wheeled bogie passenger coaches made for msts yet.
