In 1948 BR asked O.V.S Bulleid to come up with a solution to

help reduce overcrowding on suburban routes to and from London.

In 1949 2 Double Deck units rolled off the production line,
numbered 4001/4002 these were an experiment that lasted
22 years and finished on 1st October 1971.

In 1970 both units were repainted to BR Blue and renumbered to 4901 and 4902.
