==Service==
General Utility Van (GUV) 95194 (originally numbered 86192) was built by Pressed Steel in 1958 as Lot 30417 to Diagram 811. It entered service in the Western Region as W86192 in December 1958, becoming E86192 in the Eastern Region by 1972.<ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Longworth (2013)]] p.202.</ref> Original TOPS classification code NKV indicated a 100 mph GUV (BRUTE).
Rolling stock in the 86nnn range was renumbered under TOPS in the 1980s, possibly to prevent confusion by clerical staff with numbers issued to Class 86 diesel locomotives, and E86192 became E93192 in April 1983.<ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Longworth (2013)]] p.220.</ref> It became 95194 in January 1993, the BR2 bogies being replaced by Commonwealth bogies at that time. The new TOPS classification code NO also indicated the installation of ETH.<ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Longworth (2013)]] p.236.</ref>
