Carriage 2100 being named by the Queen

Carriage 2100 is a Pullman Observation Carriage built to operate on the Welsh Highland Railway. Before construction started the second Pullman was originally conceived to be similar to Carriage 2115. This idea was changed to a Pullman Observation carriage to give a panoramic view at one end, with a rounded end similar to Caledonian Railway observation carrs.

The carriage was named Glaslyn at Dinas by Queen Elizabeth II on 27th April 2010. FR Company Chairman Dr John Prideaux and the General Manager, Paul Lewin, can also be seen in this photograph.
