Manufacturer description
William Stanier (1876-1965) was headhunted from the GWR to become Chief Mechanical Engineer of London, Midland and Scottish (LMS) Railways in 1932. With the support of the Chairman, Sir Josiah Stamp, Stanier is credited with modernising the LMS fleet of generally small steam locomotives with a larger, modern and more powerful array of designs. Soon after his appointment, Stanier also focused on refurbishing and standardising the Coach stock of the LMS and developed the Period III LMS coaches which later became known as Stanier Coaches. These designs were extremely popular and successful and many were still in service in the mid 1960??s. There are many examples of Period III coaches operating on Heritage Railways throughout the UK today.
The Dapol OO Model of the Stanier Coach is derived from refurbished Airfix/Mainline tooling originally purchased by Dapol in the 1980??s. There are some compromises on detail accuracy due to the condition and usability of the 40+ year old tooling. However, we feel the model captures the essence of the Period III coach design well and offers an extremely affordable way of building up a fleet of pre or post nationalised fleet of LMS coaches. Dapol have strived to ensure livery and colour details have been captured and are comparable to the originals, including the roof level gold lines.

Gauge 57’ Stanier Non Corridor Comp Coach BR Carmine Unlined M16615 RTR
Dapol 57’ Stanier Non‑Corridor Brake BR Carmine Unlined (M20540) is a ready‑to‑run OO gauge model of a British Railways period coach. The coach is presented in BR maroon livery, sits on two bogies and carries the manufacturer part number 4P‑010‑014.
The original coach was built by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway between 1933 and 1935. It represents the British Railways Late Crest era and is a non‑corridor, unlined brake carriage of 57 feet length.
The model is based on Airfix/Mainline tooling that Dapol acquired in the 1980s. Because the tooling is over four decades old, some detail compromises are inevitable, but the model retains the essential features of the Period III Stanier coach design, including roof‑level gold lining and accurate colour work.
Dapol markets the coach as an affordable option for collectors seeking to assemble pre‑ or post‑nationalisation LMS coach fleets for use on heritage railway layouts.
