These coaches were built in 1907 for through services to the Midland Railway and thus were 1st/3rd class only. In fact they were used indiscriminately on all through services, often in pairs. In the 1930's they were in three or four car sets and ended in 1959 on corridor sets in 'blood and custard' livery.
