The BRBritish Rail or British Railways Mark 1 Corridor Second (SK) was the most prolific of the Mark 1 passenger stock, with more than 2,200 built. However they were an early candidate for withdrawal, being replaced by Mark 2 Open, HST sets and Networker Turbo units.[1]

24845 was built at Derby in 1955[2] or 1956[1] to diagram number 146 of lot number 30153.

24845 arrived on the SVRSevern Valley Railway in December 1986 from Old Oak Common.[1] It is owned by SVR(H) and is one of four such coaches used for staff accommodation at Bridgnorth.
