The Southern Railway Maunsell carriage was the first design family of railway carriages built by Southern Railway (SR) in the United Kingdom. Following grouping in 1923, SR had continued to build carriages to the designs of the previous three main companies (the London and South Western Railway, London Brighton and South Coast Railway and South Eastern and Chatham Railway railways), and the Maunsell carriage was intended to be the standard carriage design for use across the Southern Railway lines, incorporating the best features of each of the former companies' designs.

The body frame was mostly made of wood with steel sheeting, the roof was made of wood with canvas over it, the guard and luggage compartments had a width of 8 ft 7in, with pressed steel duckets between the differences in widths from luggage to passenger compartments. The decision about the gangways was decided in January 1924 with Pullman Gangways being adopted.
