No 975 - Dean 4-Wheel Third

No. 975 is a four wheel third coach built for Bristol Local Services in 1902. Incandescent gas lighting was added in 1915. In 1939 it was transferred into the Pilot Van list becoming Breakdown Tender No 108, allocated to Shrewsbury. The vehicle was condemned in June 1957.

This vehicle has been partially restored externally but is scheduled to be fully restored in due course as part of the project to create a Victorian train.
