==Carriages==
For rolling stock inherited from the ‘Big 4’ at nationalisation, BR initially retained the same number but allocated a prefix according to where it originated ('''E'''=LNER, '''M'''=LMS, '''S'''=Southern, '''GW'''=GWR).<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_carriage_and_wagon_numbering_and_classification Wikipedia]</ref>
From 1951, new BR carriages were given a prefix to indicate the region to which the carriage was allocated (a carriage could have carried more than one prefix if transferred between regions during service):<ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Longworth (2013)]] p.8.</ref>
