NSWGR L Set RFL 1st Class/Buffet Car - Tuscan / Russet (TS12 SP1 HF4)

Converted from members of the 1890 Express type cars during 1929-30, the L cars were designed to provide improved accommodation on a number of accelerated Timetable Daylight trains designed to compete with improving road transport. The initial 42 cars were marshalled into 7 semi-permanently coupled sets of 6 cars, numbered Set 80 to Set 86. Four of the sets were painted in new bright colour schemes matched to each new service. Later on, between 1933 and 1940, further conversions were done, but these remained 'independent' cars.


Sets 83, 84 and 85, as well as the independent cars, entered service in the then standard Pre-war Russet and Tuscan red scheme, though the lining out was not as elaborate as some of the other classes, some of the L cars were elaborately lined around the windows!
These three sets were marshalled:

Set 83 HFL 370 BL 327 BL 988 RFL 377 FL 398 HFL 419
Set 84 HFL 405 BL 334 BL 991 RFL 37 FL 333 HFL 407
Set 85 HFL 343 BL 337 BL 356 RFL 418 FL 355 HFL 416
