Topic: British Rail coach designations

	American English
		British usage is "meter" for a measuring device and "metre" for the unit of length.
		British houses simply do not have such things, the nearest equivalents are "patio" meaning an unroofed area adjacent to a building paved with slabs, "verandah" a covered and glassed walkway along the side of a building and "conservatory" a room-like extension entirely walled and roofed in glass.
		British houses are usually numbered serially starting from one end of a road or street with even numbers on one side and odd numbers on the other side, however it is not uncommon to find them numbered sequentially up one side of the road and down the other.

	British Rail coach designations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The London, Midland and Scottish Railway and the London and North Eastern Railway both developed a system of identifying carriages by means of alphabetic codes.
		When British Railways was formed in 1948, it decided to adopt the former LNER method of carriage classification.
		The codes are made up from a combination of letters, some of which can indicate more than one word; their meaning can only be determined according to their position, or the presence of other letters, in the code.

	EisenBahn Model Trains - Marklin 00/H0 History
		Designing and mass producing very small and highly reliable electric motors was a state of the problem at that time.
		That same design continues to be used as the basis of today's M-track and is ample evidence of a very sound design.
		Designed in 1943 by Borsig, a major locomotive builder, this giant never saw the light of day; but would have been the largest steam locomotive ever in Europe.

	GatherGate Dossier: Scale Models / Scale Modeling
		This British scale is anomalously used on the standard H0 gauge (16.5 mm) tracks, however, because early electric motor magnets were awkward in small 3.5mm/foot loco.
		Although the British scale for "O" gauge was first used for model cars comprised of rectilinear and circular parts, it was the origin of the European scale for cast or injection moulded model cars.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/SR multiple unit numbering and classification
		The Southern Railway created numbering and classification systems for its large fleet of electric multiple units that were perpetuated by the Southern Region of British Rail until the early 1980s, when the impact of TOPS was felt.
		The Southern Region of British Rail perpetuated this method of classification, and the same principles were also adopted for diesel-electric multiple unit stock, but with single-letter codes.
		NB: This was different from the system used by British Rail (adopted from the LNER) to indicate the type of non-powered coach -- see British Rail coach designations.

	Southern Electric Group
		The express rolling stock design was the culmination of the development of the 4Cor units introduced for the 1937 Portsmouth electrification but using electro-pneumatic brakes and BR standard carriage designs.
		The motor coaches at each end of the unit differed slightly, in that only those adjacent to the TS (TRB in 4Bep) were equipped with motor generator sets and batteries these being the higher numbered coach in each unit.
		Design requirements called for a dual purpose locomotive, able to maintain the schedule of the 'Golden Arrow' in a timetable with close headways, and yet be able to haul a 900 ton freight train up a gradient of 1 in 100.
