MK 3 ex fgw first class being used for a thai restaurant

[Impey0711]

This looks like an interesting project.

Thai restaurant planned for 40-year-old British Rail carriages in Pitlochry in restored original livery

Plans have been lodged to convert 40-year-old first class train carriages into a Thai restaurant beside Pitlochry station which will be restored to their original 1980 British Rail orange interior decor.

Just seen this as well. Nice to see some mk3s find another use, good luck to them with it.

Wouldn't a 158 vehicle be more appropriate for that cuisine?

Will definitely be adding this into the itinerary of my Scottish HST trip in 2022. I hope they do well.

That made be chuckle! Manual doors are probably better for a restaurant, but .... yknow where I'm going with this!

Well, the Thailand Railways version of the 158 does have manual doors I believe?
