John Dedman first started to take photos of coaches in the late
1970s, mainly as references for modelling purposes. In British
Coaching Stock, he delves into his superb archive of unpublished
images and shares a wide variety of Mark 1, Mark 2 and Mark 3
stock. Beginning with BR Mark 1 stock, John Dedman features the
regular day-to-day vehicles alongside photos of various types of
restaurant, kitchen and buffet cars. Mark 1 sleeping cars are also
included; so too are the XP64 prototypes that were still in service
in the period covered. Also featured are Mark 2 and Mark 3 coaches,
as well as the Caledonian Sleeper with its distinctive liveried
Mark 3 sleeping cars and day coaches. Pullman coaches from the
traditional older vehicles to the Mark 2s, as used on the
Manchester Pullman service, also appear here, as do Royal Mail
Travelling Post Office sorting and stowage vans and parcels
vehicles - some of which are from the pre-1948 era railway
companies. In addition to this, John Dedman includes photographs of
older coaches still running on the main line today, usually in
private charter and excursion trains.
