Not one of those.
You may have to think a bit leftfield here.
Clue - It is a locomotive, it is mainline registered and you may have to dig deeper for your knowledge on this one...

That implies to me a steam loco which is not my thing so I'll let someone else guess this one!
It looks so obvious now!

Black 5?
Good work Iskra.
Here it is (taken tonight. I told you I was running out of pictures).
Over to you.
Right company but wrong loco. Close though...

Over to you.
Believe it or not I was going to suggest that but having looked at some pictures of Black Five's on the web I wasn't convinced! ho-hum!

It's not a HST or a MK1 either. I'm going to bed now, I'll start providing clues in the morning if it hasn't been guessed by then!

It’s not a 185, you’re getting further away with that guess.
As you all initially identified, I can confirm it is a window from something built under BR.
Class 156?
I initially thought Class 155, then of course class 153 but wasn't sure if the class 155 to class 153 conversion happened under BR or not so I thought I'd play safe and go for 156. They are essentially all the same inside more or less aren't they?
(I reckon he's gone to bed, which is where I will be going shortly!)

I can confirm I had gone to bed 
Now, to throw a cat amongst the pigeons: It’s a locomotive.

Is it another CS class 73/9 (cab door) ?

It is indeed, well done. 73’s do appear a lot in this thread. Some good guesses and it was quite tricky. I will post the full pic when I get home this evening.
