TT4104 BR - Maroon - Mk1 - Brake Second Corridor - M34686

This Mk1 model coach depicts Brake Second Corridor Coach No.M34686 in BR Maroon.

The British Railways Mark 1 coach family includes some of the most successful designs in railway history, with thousands constructed and lasting from the early 50’s right up until the present day.

One such design, the Brake Second Corridor, provided space in one half of the coach for the guard to conduct his duties, as well as room for luggage and parcels. 

During the late 1950’s and early 60’s, these coaches could be seen behind a variety of motive power, include many of the locomotives in our range such as the LNER Class A3 and A4, LMS Black 5, Class 31, and Class 47.

History:
