Presumably at Temple Mills for some sort of repair (?) the footbridge here offered some good views of these coaches which are normally tucked away at Old Oak Common...

I understand that this vehicle - and 'sisters' 975610, 12, 13, 14, 15 were all originally converted in 1968 to Southern Region TLV (Trailer Luggage Vans) to work with the SR Class 419 MLV's. 975610 and 14 are now scrapped. One assumes they had high level brake pipes at one time in there lives.

A first look at the former Old Oak breakdown set at its new home. Two of the former Toton coaches remain OOU at Old Oak while the other is currently at Warrington Arpley yard...

It is at Warrington with the two Merseyrail Barrier coaches. They are currently stabled just near the fuelling shed and are easily photographed. I have got a few of them all if you would like them Ben

You are quite right, Martin.
This particular vehicle was originally BG 80915, converted to TLV numbered 68201.
They would have been through wired for emu operation so high level brake pipes and mu jumpers (or at least the sockets for) must have been fitted.
