Product InfoThe idea of the managers train, business train or inspectionsaloon is far from a new one, the first examples being employed by some of theearliest of the pre-grouping railway companies. In the modern era EWS’management train is a version of this rather old fashioned idea. For much ofthe modern era, EWS has operated a push-pull managers train and a ‘businesstrain’. This business train, despite its name, rarely operated as asingle train with sets of coaches often being employed on extra services aroundthe country, an example being on services laid on during major UK basedsporting events and such. The business train utilised the then rather old Mk2 coachesin a special EWS maroon livery and would be found being hauled by all manner ofEWS liveried traction.
