Manufacturer description

The all-new Bachmann Branchline Bulleid Coaches have been designed from the rails up and these stunning models capture every element of Bulleid’s modernistic design to a tee. These steel-bodied coaches went on to influence the ubiquitous British Railways Mark 1 Standard Coaching Stock, and we hope you will agree that we’ve really done these important coaches justice in model form. This model depicts Third Corridor No. S1935 in BR (Ex-SR) Malachite Green livery.

Every Bachmann Branchline Bulleid Coach incorporates a wealth of detail including separately fitted components such as roof vents, lamp irons, toilet filler & overflow pipework and the portrayal of a complete vacuum pipe-run between the sockets at each end of the vehicles. The bogies incorporate electrical pickups, brake details and footsteps as appropriate whilst authentic interiors are also included along with full underframe gear.

Prototype information

^* Class names often change over the lifespan of a locomotive, so this is not necessarily the class name used by the operator in the period modelled.

Bachmann has released a range of OO scale models as part of their Branchline series, featuring Southern Railway Bulleid coaches. These models are designed to accurately capture the distinctive modernistic design of the original coaches. The range includes a Third Corridor coach in Malachite Green livery, which was a colour used by British Railways after nationalisation.

The coach is based on the design of the Southern Railway's Bulleid coaches, which influenced the later British Railways Mark 1 Standard Coaching Stock. The model includes a range of separately fitted components, such as roof vents, lamp irons, and toilet filler and overflow pipework. The bogies feature electrical pickups, brake details, and footsteps, while the interior includes authentic details and full underframe gear.

The model is designed for Era 4, which represents the Big Four period of British railways, from 1948 to the 1950s. The model measures 270mm in length and features a close coupling mechanism and NEM coupling pockets. The coach is finished in pristine condition, reflecting its BR (Ex-SR) Malachite Green livery.
