Past Present and in Between in Pictures (Part 1)

Ray Smyth:
Thanks to Gerald, Pete, and Robert for your comments on the BRS Austin artics.
They were fitted with Scammell couplings, probably part of the BRS Parcels fleet.
I imagine they were painted in BRS Parcels “Green”.
Cheers, Ray.

The 2 that I can identify are Austin 5EFED units rated at 8 Tons. They were new in October 1956 at High Wycombe depot and painted red. 823 AWL and 824 AWL. Later fleet no.s were 4G311 and 312 Later transfered to Swindon
