Model details

Prototype information

Accurascale has released a new model in its 4mm/oo gauge Mk.2 coaching stock range, the Mk.2C BSO Blue/Grey BR with ScotRail branding, No.9446. This model is a representation of the late-style Mk.2c variant with small 'air con'-style toilet windows.

The model is built to a high standard with many features, including separately-applied etched metal and high-fidelity plastic parts, such as handrails, brake/steam heat pipes, ETH cabling and sockets, footsteps, and roof vents. The underframe is fully detailed with numerous separate parts, pipe runs, and accurate differences between versions.

The model features a highly detailed interior, including 'winged' headrests, separate metal interior handrails on the brake and corridor vehicles, and a fully detailed guard's compartment. The NEM standard coupling sockets are correct in height, with mini tension lock couplers and kinematic close-coupling.

The model is designed for use on 16.5mm track and has a minimum radius of 438mm. The wheel-sets are blackened RP25.110 profile with 14.4mm back-to-back measurements and 26mm over pinpoints. The buffers are designed for retracted and non-retracted positions.

The model is part of Accurascale's range of Mk.2 coaching stock, which will include nine different versions. The range represents the late-style Mk.2c variant, built at Litchurch Lane, Derby, in 1969-70, and the four additional types introduced in the 1980s.

Key features of the model include:

* Highly detailed OO gauge / 1:76.2 scale models
* Extremely fine exterior rivet detail
* Separately-applied etched metal and high-fidelity plastic parts
