The Product

Part of our range of personal effects made from our own line of heritage moquettes, this 25cm washbag is perfect for holding your bathroom supplies on a trip away. The soft-feel PVC leatherette core gives this item a sturdy yet flexible construction whilst the dual moquette side panels add the class and style. Constructed with a moisture-proof liner and a high quality zip, this item has plenty of internal space and will keep your bathroom items safe and sound whilst travelling.

The Pattern - Charcoal Check

A workhorse of a design with a long history, Charcoal Check first saw use in 1967 when it appeared in the brand new Mk. 2 coaches being introduced by British Rail at the time. This pattern underwent several subtle alterations over the years and we offer its last incarnation in which the light grey bands are slightly more prominent than in its first.

For many years after it ceased to be specified for passenger use, Charcoal Check became the standard design for upholstering the seats in locomotives and multiple unit cabs, and is still used for that purpose to this day. It is a firm favourite with ex-drivers and is enjoying a rennaisance as the cloth of choice for driver's seats in the heritage road transport sector.
