SAR Sitter Coach (Series 3-4, Side B) |
| Description: |
This sitter coach (a PC title for 4th Class) is painted in the Shosholoza Meyl livery. It has eleven windows on each side and its interior layout is, from end to end, a toilet on each side, a single large open cabin, and another toilet on each side. The cabin was originally laid out in eleven back to back rows of benches, to accommodate 108 passengers. When it was rebuilt for the Shosholoza Meyl, the cabin layout was changed to eighteen rows of four airliner type seats with a centre aisle, all facing the same end of the coach, to accommodate 72 passengers. In this arrangement most of the rows of seats are not in line with windows and to call it an uncomfortable ride will be putting it mildly....SAR Type H-6, Number range 36004 to 36197, Built 1982-85, Length over headstocks 20.840m, Height 3.960m, Width 2.845m, To seat 108. |
