British Railways Class 505 were 1500 V DC electric multiple units (EMUs) introduced in 1931 by the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway (MSJAR). Although assigned to TOPS Class 505 by British Railways these units were withdrawn before the TOPS numbering system came into common use for multiple units and the Class 505 designation is very rarely used.Following the 1923 Grouping the MSJAR company was owned jointly by the LMS and LNER.
