Autocoach

Also known as an "autotrain", the GWR term for a push-pull vehicle.  The GWR made considerable use of such trains on branch and secondary services, a mechanical linkage enabling the regulator of the locomative to be remotely operated from the cab of the autocoach, some times known as an autotrailer.
