London Midland & Scottish Railway

Coronation Scot - Brake Third No 5812.  The last coach of the train. I find it odd that the LMS fitted a corridor connection to the brake end of this coach. When travelling south this coach would have been the first coach of the train but the connection would still have not been used. After all the LMS did not have corridor tenders unlike the LNER. Possibly so that the coach could be used on other trains when not required for the Coronation Scot.
