The Travelling College
The Travelling College ('Y Coleg Ar Y Cledrau') was a specially converted train operated on the British Rail network. The train was designed by Barrie Masterton, with the twelve dedicated coaches being converted at the Cardiff Cathays works. The Travelling College was the only train of its kind in the World, with provision for up to 160 students.
The train was finished in cream with chocolate brown and red bands, along with white roofs.〔(Travelling College )〕 It was operated under a contract with the InterCity Charter section and based at Old Oak Common TMD. The entire train was withdrawn and purchased by the Bluebell Railway in 1993.〔(A mixed bag: The BR Mk.Is )〕
==Concept==
With the launch of the GCSE examinations requiring a considerable amount of learning to take place outside of the classroom it was hoped that the Travelling College would provide means for the classroom and associated accommodation to be taken to suitable locations, essentially creating a mobile field study centre. The service was launched by HRH The Princess of Wales on 2 May 1989, with a brass plaque being unveiled in saloon TCL991868. In the event, however, government legislation on course organisation and funding of external activities meant that the College was not available for the majority of state schools.
