The four coaches in this group of vehicles were known as the Bowsiders because of the shape of their sides and were supplied by two builders in 1876 and 1879. Numbers 17 and 18 are the shorter coaches, delivered in 1876, and the two long coaches, numbers 19 and 20, arrived three years later in 1879. All four are still in service on the Ffestiniog Railway today. Numbers 18 (short) and 19
