Internal view of the LNWR Clerestory Parcels Van now fully loaded with bicycles of all shapes and sizes

Internal view of the LNWR Clerestory Parcels Van now fully loaded with bicycles of all shapes and sizes circa 1899. This view shows the purpose of a Clerestory coach namely the centre portion of the roof being raised to accommodate gas lighting. The use of curtains was to minimise dust entering the carriage through the inevitable cracks in the door openings.
