Back British Rail coach designations SIMPLE

British Rail coach type codes

British Railways coach designations were a series of letter-codes used to identify different types of coaches, both passenger carrying and non-passenger carrying stock (NPCS). The code was generally painted on the end of the coach but non-gangwayed stock had the code painted on the side.[1] They have been superseded by TOPS design codes.[2]
