Ex-London & North Eastern, as was the RR line, built 1937 for the LNER's "Coronation", later put to arguably better use on the West Highland Line. Later yet substantially rebuilt, then preserved and under rebuild.

For a view of the BR rebuild:

Interesting cars and history. But I'm partial to the "Cedar Rapids"........
