Manufacturer description

This 6 Wheeled Coach is a representation of those that ran on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway from 1886 until around 1930. After passing to Southern at grouping, many were withdrawn and found themselves re-purposed as houses and sheds.

Small coaches such as this 6 Wheeled Coach proved especially good at branch line work, where their small size enabled them to traverse tight radius curves and be hauled by smaller engines.

This S&DJR coach is modelled as having step boards to enable access at stations with low platforms and electric lighting.
