Southern Railway inherited diverse pre-grouping coach stock and continued building new coaches following the design of the three major railway companies. The standard coach design was 59ft in length, featuring wood construction with steel sheeting. Construction began on First Class Dining Saloons for the Western Section in August 1925, followed by additional batches, designed for services to London-Bournemouth, London-Portsmouth, and London-Exeter. These dining saloons accommodated twenty-four passengers, with seating bays and service facilities at opposite ends. More low-windowed Dining Saloons were added between 1929 and 1930 for inter-regional and West Country services., Manufacturer: Hornby Hobbies
