This Third Class Pullman Moquette is the one which has been in Car 64 for several decades.
This moquette was also used in the 1951 Golden Arrow refurbishment of Car 35, which was re-modelled as Second Class, as seen in Plate 148 of Haresnape's Pullman book.
This sample, obtained from Eastleigh, would appear, from Haresnape's Pullman book plate 142 to be the moquette used to trim the bar perch-seats in the 1951 Golden Arrow car Pegasus.
This sample is representative of a part-roll of moquette in our possession, believed to have been of Pullman origin. If anyone has information about this moquette, I'd be very interested to learn more.
Plate 196 of Haresnape's Pullman book shows that this BR First-class Charcoal Check, normally associated with Mk.1 coaches, was also used in the 1968 refurbishment of Brighton Belle car Audrey.
