Hod Carrier
LMS Railcar 64
A general view of the rebuilt railcar.
Following the end of World War Two, the LMS Railcar underwent a metamorphosis from svelte passenger train to workaday maintenance train looking after the overhead power cables around Manchester. The design shifted towards practicality, with the railcar losing the centre car and two of the remaining four engines, but gaining new cabs, a new roof profile and new layout inside.
