Rapido's GWR pre-1904 'Evolution' Non-Corridor Carriage Pack is a new addition to their Evolution Batch 2 collection. This pack features three OO gauge non-corridor bogie coaches, representing the pre-grouping era of the Great Western Railway.

The pack includes a Brake Third, No.223, a Third Coach, No.1165, and a Composite Coach, No.65, all of which are modelled in the pre-1904 livery of the GWR. The coaches are detailed with features such as clerestory roofs, gas lighting, and full-length lower footboards.

The models are equipped with Fox pattern bogies, and feature full internal and external detail, including working lighting. The NEM coupling pockets and kinematic coupling mechanism allow for smooth coupling with other model trains. An optional 'vacuum pipe' close coupling bar is also included.
