That looks about right. I don't think Raleigh made any distinction on the frame whether it was a Sports C Tourist or a Sports X Tourist. Near as I can figure it, these terms simply stood for cable or drum brakes, respectively.
...and of
course it would have been too logical for Raleigh to call the latter the Sports
"D" Tourist.
