Model details

Prototype information

Accurascale has released a range of OO gauge models representing the Siphon G coach, a type of non-corridor coach built by Swindon Works and Derby Works between 1913 and 1955. The models are available in various liveries, including BR maroon, and are designed to accurately represent the coach as it would have appeared during the British Railways Early Crest period.

The models feature highly detailed exterior and interior components, including etched metal and high-fidelity plastic parts, and a fully detailed underframe with numerous separate parts. The bogies are also accurately replicated, with blackened RP25.110 profile wheel-sets and brass bearings. The models are designed for use on 16.5mm track and have a minimum radius requirement of 438mm.

The models are available in various versions, including the BR(W) 0.62, O.59 and M.34 conversions, and the BR Newspaper Van conversions of the O.62 (NNV). Each model is supplied with a NEM standard coupling socket and a mini tension lock coupler, allowing for easy coupling and uncoupling of the models.

The Siphon G models are available in OO gauge, with a scale of 1:76.2 and a length of 216mm. They are suitable for use on OO gauge model railways, and are designed to provide a highly realistic and detailed representation of the Siphon G coach.
