Transporter pod on the 22 inch Eagle. This very early shot shows the pod without Alpha insignia.

The 44 inch transporter pod, seen in Breakaway.

Many shots, such as this from Black Sun, were reused throughout the series.

The 22 inch Eagle was also used in many recycled scenes.

In Dragon's Domain, the pod has special long feet so that it can be detached from the main body of the Eagle.

Steps are occasionally fitted to the door.

Shot for Space Warp, this shot was seen in The Seance Spectre. The pod door is "open" (or at least black).

Close up from Testament Of Arkadia.

Full size set version of the door. There are additional details around the door (orange signs, the retracted rails). The cross pattern in the door is inset (on the model it is outset, which would make sliding the door into the bulkheads at the side difficult). The small panel on the right side of the model door is on the left side of the set door.

Interior of the set door.

Close up of the top of the pod, from Space Brain. There are 6 dark panels along the upper sloping side of the pod. In the interior set, there are roof sections that roughly correspond to these panels- but they are light panels, not windows. Are they windows that are normally closed by screens? Or solar panels for power?

This crashed Eagle from Another Time, Another Place doesn't have the dark panels- they are the same grey-white as the rest of the pod. This pod is also seen in the crash in Ring Around The Moon.

A extra-large section of Eagle pod was seen in Bringers Of Wonder part 2

Two pods alongside each other, from Guardian Of Piri. The closer pod is not a complete model. Only the top sloping surface of the pod (on one side) exists.

Two pods alongside each other, from Space Brain.

Another pod appears at the end of Year 2. There are no details in the panel over the door. There are numbers on the bottom corners.

This is the larger scale pod, built twice the size of the 44inch Eagle (it was not a complete pod, or Eagle, and was used only for close-ups). Note there is some detail in the panel over the door, approximating that over the other 44inch pods.

The eaves of the passenger pod are not present over the door. The Eagle 2 model still has this pod.
