            Griddle Car E1104 stands at Shenton on the Battlefield line, 30th May 2010. With its B5 bogies this vehicle on first glance would appear to be a late build Mark I, however it is probably one of the oldest Mark I’s still in existence. It was originally one of a batch of five diagram 16 Restaurant First (W301 – W305) built at Doncaster works in 1952 to lot 30013. They entered traffic in early 1953 on Western Region duties, however they were not a very satisfactory internal design and by 1960 they were only being used occasionally. Around September 1963 W301 was condemned and this was followed in 1964 by W302 and W305. On the 3rd July 1964 W302/05 arrived at York works and joined W301 (which had been in open storage since being condemned) to be converted to Griddle Cars 1103 – 1105 with 1104 being converted from W301. In the mid 1970’s all three vehicles were allocated to the Scottish Region. Again they do not appear to have been particularly successful as they had all been withdrawn by 1982. My thanks to RW Carroll for some of the detail and any further information regarding this vehicle would be gratefully received.
