It was an unclassified or 'nondescript' saloon (ie not allocated to any specific class such as first or third), and was used for private hire. As originally built it seated 44 passengers in two saloons with a side-corridor connection. It also featured 'toplights', small 'lights' or windows above the main windows, which were a feature of many GWR carriages of the period.
9055 was a ‘one-off’ prototype, although it formed the basis of a later Collett design of which [[GWR 9103 Nondescript Saloon | 9103]] and [[GWR 9369 Nondescript Saloon | 9369]] are also at the SVR.
