Good morning all,

I am looking for some information regarding Mk2 coaches specifically MK2D TSOTs.

I gather that some of them used to carry Intercity livery but I am struggling to find any pictures of them to verify details.

If you have any information or know where I can find it (either in print or on the internet) then I'd be very grateful.

My 1991 Platform 5 Combined Volume lists all the extant Mark 2d TSOTs at that time as wearing Intercity livery: 6600/01, 03-05, 07-09, 13/14, 16-19.

For additional information, prior to this, my Ian Allan 1987 Coaching Stock book lists 6600 and 16 in Intercity livery, and 6601/04/05, 13/14/19 in Scotrail livery.

Didn't most of the Mark 2d TSOTs become RMBTs with an extra bay taken?

This is 6660, which was a RMBT converted from a TSOT.

Five of the TSOTs were converted to RMBTs in 1986: 6652, 60-62/65 being converted from TSOTs 6602, 10-12/15 respectively.

I didn't know that so it would certainly make sense as to why I can't find any pictures of them.
