Post #17 in this topic on another Forum quotes two printed sources if you can find either of them: "'The LMS Wagon' by Essery & Morgan lists all of the lot numbers and build numbers, where known. This vital detail is missing from Essery's later 2-volume set 'An Illustrated History of LMS Wagons', but those books have more photos."

Edit: A quick check on Amazon shows 1 new copy of Essery & Morgan at £260.94 or 12 used from £12.20.
