Between 1906 and 1910 the LSWR built 37 standard sets for semi-fast main line and cross country services. They were formed — Brake Third(4C24) + 2nd/3rd Composite (4C25) + 1st/3rd Composite (4C26) + Brake Third (4C24). From 1935 the 2nd/3rd compos, by now thirds, were removed from the sets and were used loose.
The three car sets remained in service until 1957. |
Two were included in each set Many to engineers service in the 1950's One preserved on the Bluebell Railway. |
