History[]
Belle joined the new formation of coaches for the 2017 Workshop in London. While she shares both name and occupation with Belle, the sleeping car from the original London production and Broadway, the two share nothing more in common.
While the 2017 sleeping car got converted into Belle the Bar Car for the 2018 Bochum revival, she later made her return in London for the 2024 Wembley production, with a fuller characterisation to her 2017 counterpart and keeping her difference from the Bar Car and Sleeping Car before her.
