The interior was described as a contemporary 'Adams' style with French influence. It was rebuilt as a composite in 1933, and again as a first class car in 1950. Withdrawn from service in October 1960 after use on the "Bournemouth Belle", it became "Holiday Coach P46" in the south of England, and was dismantled about 1968. The lamp is in fine original condition. Note Lamps with original celluloid shades should not be lit; they are extremely flammable!
