'''Non Passenger Carrying Coaching Stock ''' (NPCCS) comprised goods vans and similar vehicles which were equipped to be included in passenger services. Typically, this would require:
*Suspension suitable for working at higher speeds
*A longer wheelbase and larger wheels than comparable 'goods' rated stock
*Motor-cars carried for individuals, rather than 'trade'.
*Horses and other categories of livestock
GWR NPCCS vehicles were normally painted plain brown rather than the normal 'chocolate and cream' and were thus known as "brown vehicles".<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coaches_of_the_Great_Western_Railway Wikipedia: Coaches of the Great Western Railway]</ref>
Classes of NPCCS found on the SVR include:
