I'm doing a bit more scanning for the NGRS.
Anyone recognise these coaches/Vans?

The first photo are derelict Mk.3 Quarrymen's coaches

The second photo is either Carriage 15 or Carriage 16

The third photo is one of the 'Bowsiders'

I expect the FR experts will be able to identify which ones exactly!

Hello!

I think the third picture is either 19 or 20, with the tri-composite arrangement...
