}}GWR Toplight Full Third 2426 was designed by G.J. Churchward and built in 1910 at Swindon. Originally the coach would have seated 64 passengers. It was converted to a camping coach in 1957, and renumbered W9918W.
2426 was purchased in 1972 for volunteer dormitory accommodation, and was used for that purpose at [[Hampton Loade]] until mid 2016. It has now been was then moved to into storage at Kidderminster, with its place at Hampton Loade taken by [[GWR 55 Riding/Dormitory Van | GWR Riding Van 55]].
