I'm just building a kit of a GWR V6 Iron Mink in pre-grouping condition. The instructions include a photo of a preserved example which has door catches to hold the door open, and a photo from c1923 where the van does not have door catches. In gauge 3 the catches are noticeable and, although awkward to model, add to the appearance. were they something that was added later on these vans?
