Prototype Era
Era 5 (1956 to 1966) British Railways Late Crest
Our model is based on the six coaches numbered 36 to 41 constructed during 1907 under Lot 1126 to Diagram ‘N ’. All were built new as driving trailers and not later conversions from old steam rail motors. They were used on branch lines from Cornwall to Wales and retained their gas lighting until withdrawn, the first in 1956, the last in November 1957. Number 38 is preserved on the Telford Steam Railway as pictured above.

Dapol Autocoach BR W38 Maroon – DCC fitted. The model is presented in British Railways late‑crest maroon livery and includes DCC capability and working interior lighting. It carries the manufacturer part number 4P‑004‑007D and represents the British Railways period of the late 1950s.
Key features include finely moulded bogie frames with NEM profile wheels, a highly detailed body with many separate components, sprung metal buffers and a removable roof to allow easy insertion of crew and passengers. The livery is applied with care and interior lights operate; an optional DCC sound fitting is also available.
The prototype is based on the six autocoaches numbered 36 to 41 that were built in 1907 under Lot 1126 to Diagram ‘N’. These units were constructed as driving trailers for branch lines from Cornwall to Wales and retained gas lighting throughout their service. The first withdrawal occurred in 1956 and the final one in November 1957. Number 38 is preserved on the Telford Steam Railway.
