Thanks for those pictures Alan.

One of those Southern vans is definitely on my "hit list" and your detailed photographs are just the job when viewed with my plan and wagon books:thumbs:

It would help me enormously if any of you chaps have photos of the inside of the cabin and/or veranda of one of the SR vans. Can anyone help, please?
