History:

From 1987, changed the title of these vehicles to Tourist Standard Open when Second Class became Standard Class across the BR network. Seating is arranged in a 2+2 either side of a central aisle. 

As coaches were repainted into the corporate BR colour scheme, it was common for trains to be formed of mixed blue/grey and maroon stock.
