Does anyone know of a published plan or published photo showing the roof layout of the BR-built Baggage Car E68000 used on the Tyneside electric system from 1955 until transferred to Merseyside in 1963, please?

There is a photo of 68000 at Formby on the Liverpool Southport line taken on 8th May 1965 in Merseyside Electrics by Jonathan Cadwallader and Martin Jenkins.

It does show a fair bit of roof detail on one side.

Thanks, I have the book. Unfortunately it does not show enough to work out the layout including the conduits. Somewhere I believe there is a published photo looking down from above, but I cannot locate it.
