Description

Overall carpets are fitted throughout, whilst the floor itself is carried on the underframe with rubber mountings. The floor of the passenger entry vestibules at the ends of the vehicles is covered in coir matting which is carried in zinc lined wells. These partitions are a polished rich dark brown, and those at both ends of the Parlour Car and at the Kitchen end of the Kitchen Car incorporate brightly coloured inlaid murals of a most modern and striking design. The decorative schemes in all Second Class saloons are identical, whereas two different schemes have been used in the First Class accommodation. Details of the materials used in all schemes are as follows:

Type – Motor Car, containing Driver's Compartment, Engine Compartment, Generator Compartment, Guard's Compartment, Passenger Saloon. The train name and destination stations are displayed on roller blinds through glazed panels let into the bodysides of each end car, the mechanism being operated from inside the Guard's compartment.

The gangways between cars have been developed for air-conditioned vehicles and incorporate special rubber bellows and clipping arrangements to ensure that they are air-tight. The interiors incorporate hinged and sprung flaps covered with padded Lanide which allow the necessary relative movement between the vehicles, and at the same time always present a continuous Lanide-covered wall. The overall effect is a big improvement on any gangways on existing vehicles.

THE BRITISH TRANSPORT COMMISSION, as part of the Modernisation Plan, has decided to introduce deluxe Pullman Diesel trains between important business centres. This system controls the temperature and humidity within established comfort limits regardless of outside conditions, supplies the correct amount of outside air, ensures that the distribution of air inside the coach is controlled and draughtfree, and eliminates dirt and dust both of external and internal origin. Control switch. Engine start push button. Engine stop push button. Overload reset push button. Engine stop indicator light. Alarm indicator light. E.P. Brake indicator light. Auxiliary heat switch.

The advantages to the passenger are that the atmosphere inside thetrain is always draughtless, clean and comfortable; the upholstery, fittings and service appointments are always clean, and The bogies are also of welded construction, the tubular frames of the leading and motor bogies being fabricated from special steel pressings. The passenger saloons of all cars in the train are fitted with a fully comprehensive air-conditioning system. The necessary power to operate this equipment, and also the fluorescent lighting fitted to all passenger saloons, is provided by one of the auxiliary generating sets mounted under the Second Class Parlour Cars. This power is passed down the train by means of heavy jumper cables between coaches. In normal weather conditions the auxiliary engines at each end of the train will be used separately on alternate journeys, but in extremely cold weather both sets can be used, the second set providing additional floor heat. The Class 8 Diesel Shunter has magnetic couplings which seamlessly connect it to other toy trains and carriages. Most other major wooden railway brands are compatible with Bigjigs Rail. Made from high quality, responsibly sourced materials. Conforms to current European safety standards.

The 6-car Midland Pullman carries first class passengers only from Manchester, Central to London, St. Pancras, in the morning, returning in the evening on overall timings less than 3¼ hrs. ... The northbound 85-minute schedule for 99 miles, averaging 70 m.p.h., is the fastest in Britain. ... The Bigjigs Rail Heritage Collection offers a delightful range of replicas from the golden age of rail, including the Class 8 Diesel Locomotive . Introduced by British Railways in 1952, there are now only 100 working locomotives on the main British Rail network. The temperature conditions within the car are thermostatically controlled, the transition from operation of cooling to heating equipment or vice versa, being automatically effected. Three different temperature settings for heating and cooling are provided which the attendant can select by a manual control switch within the car.General lighting in all saloons is provided by fluorescent tube fitted behind a fluted perspex screen about 2 ft. wide, running along the centre of the ceiling. Metal mouldings fitted to each side of this panel conceal the air delivery ducts through which the air from the air-conditioning unit is passed into the saloon. Air cooling and dehumidification are accomplished by means of a mechanical refrigeration system. The compressor and condenser units of the system are mounted on the underframe of the cars and the evaporator units are mounted in the car ceiling. Heating is achieved by means of electric heating elements at floor level, and in the air-conditioning unit in the ceiling. An unusual feature incorporated in the hinged doors at the end of the passenger saloons is the window in the upper half of the door. This is glazed with specially prepared glass which has alternate vertical strips of mirror and clear glass.

Circulation of air in the car is created by centrifugal fans in the ceiling mounted air-conditioning unit. Outside and re-circulated air is drawn through filters, mixed, passed over the cooling coils of the refrigerating equipment, then over a group of electric heating elements and finally into the air delivery ducts, from whence it is delivered into the car. AS a notable part of the B.R. modernisation plan, de-luxe Pullman diesel-electric multiple-unit train sets of entirely new type have been introduced on the London Midland and Western Regions. ... They are finished externally in striking Nanking blue and white, and are beautifully equipped internally to a standard equalling, if not surpassing, anything of their type in the world. They feature a complete air-conditioning system, adjustable reclining seats in first class cars and an advanced standard of seating throughout in centre-corridor saloons with tables. Double-glazed windows have venetian blinds between, and there is a remarkable absence of noise. Novel, wide gangways between the cars afford freedom from oscillation, and there is exceptionally complete kitchen and pantry accommodation, lighting, etc.When the trains are standing in terminal stations an external supply will be connected to the train by means of the jumpers to avoid running the auxiliary engine. This is to obviate the inconvenience which would be caused to passengers on the platform by the noise of the auxiliary engine running in a confined space. The supply will be disconnected and the auxiliary engine started shortly before the train is due to leave. Total length of train over buffers 545 ft. 1 in. Total First Class seats 108 Total Second Class seats 120. Details of Power Equipment
