Manufacturer description

The BR Standard Mk.3 coach was introduced to traffic between 1975 and 1988, on both high speed and locomotive hauled services and quickly became a regular sight on Britain's main line services.


In 2014, First Great Western refurbished its Mk.3 first class carriages with interiors that dropped the First Great Western branding in favour of a new GWR logo and the whole company was subsequently rebranded as Great Western Railway (GWR) on 20 September 2015, with rolling stock featuring a dark green livery that echoed that of the former Great Western Railway.


Each model measures 303mm in length and is perfect for adding that modern yet classic twist to your railway collection.

Hornby GWR Mk3 Trailer Standard Open (Coach F, running number 42016) is a OO gauge model representing a British Railways Mark 3 coach in the current era. The model measures 303 mm in length, has a pristine finish, and is painted in GWR green livery. It carries the manufacturer part number R4781L and is classified as a TSO (Trailer Standard Open). The minimum radius curve for the model is listed as Radius 2.

The coach type is a British Railways Mark 3, originally introduced to traffic between 1975 and 1988 for both high‑speed and locomotive‑hauled services. It was later refurbished by First Great Western in 2014, with the interior branding updated to a new GWR logo, and the operator was rebranded as Great Western Railway on 20 September 2015, adopting a dark green livery reminiscent of the historic Great Western Railway.

Designed by BREL and operated by GWR, the model offers a modern yet classic addition to a railway collection, reflecting the appearance of current-era Mk3 coaches on Britain’s main line services.
