Main line coach wiring

Post by John Ashworth »

As part of our drive to get the lights working in all our coaches, we've given some attention to our main line sleeper coach. We had feared that much of the internal wiring had been cut during conversion work, but today we connected a 24v supply to the distribution board and all the lights came on - corridor, compartments, toilet and shower. We hope to be able to get all the systems on this coach working eventually.

Any electricians out there who'd like to volunteer to help?!
