Both have minor varnish or glue staining marks in places not distracting from their appearance on the layout and both have minor Pullman print loss with buffer heads painted silver. Aries has a repairable split in the chassis underframe. Overall condition good B looking better on the layout than this would suggest.

A pair of coaches with glazed windows with isolated rust on one side at one end of one coach and isolated rust spotting around several of the windows on one side of the other coach with one coach having loose fitting wheels that do drop out of the bogie but run perfectly well on the track (see images) otherwise having little paint loss overall good B 

Apparatus in excellent virtually unmarked condition with switch and 3 metal mail bags with coach having scuff marks and scratches along the middle line on one side otherwise in all other areas and respects is unmarked and structurally complete and when tested the electrical mechanism on the coach worked fine coach overall good B but much better on one side, ends and roof. 

Both coaches missing coupler hangers and having isolated roof paint loss otherwise with lining and printwork 100% and with complete structure in all other respects overall good B having a better appearance than this suggests on the track.

3 minor marks and a small dent to coach sides some minor roof scuffing otherwise having a good original bright appearance overall good B  not tested
