Baguley Coaches No. 1 & No. 2
Built by Baguley, E. E. Ltd., Shobnall Road, Burton-on-Trent.
These were originally built for a private estate railway at Lilleshall Hall, Shropshire, under Baguley works order 136 placed on the 8th March 1928 which was for three coaches of a jaunting car style (Bench style seating down the middle). They were delivered to Lilleshall Hall, on April 2nd 1928.
A further 3 coaches were delivered in 1935, making a total of six one of which was fitted with a handbrake for use by the Guard.
Lilleshall Hall closed to the public on the outbreak of World War Two, the line's rolling stock remained out of use until March 1953 when all six coaches were delivered to Alton towers theme park. During their time at Alton Towers they were rebuilt with more conventional seats.
In 1996 the set was sold to a private owner. The OKLR purchased two of the coaches in 1999; the braked vehicle has since been fitted with a roof.
