In the 1960's the Western Region of BR introduced yellow destination plates that were attached to the exterior of coaches to aid passengers in identifying the train's destination. The plates saw use well into the 1970's on services out of Paddington, plus the Waterloo - Exeter service as well. These are reproduced onto high quality paper, ready to attach to backing plasticard if required and then onto your rake of coaches.

This pack contains labels from BR days through sectorisation and into the privatisation era.

PACK 4-54 WINDOW LABELS - £1.50: BR trains carried the labels on all primary routes from at least the 1970's through sectorisation right up until the new TOC's began introducing their own house styles.
