The Rapido SR Olive 'Evolution' Non-Corridor First No.601 is a model of a British railway carriage, part of the Rapido Evolution Batch 3 collection. It represents a carriage from the Big Four era, which spanned the period from the grouping of the railways in 1923 to the nationalisation of the railways in 1948.

The carriage features a non-corridor design, with a length of 48 feet. It is modelled in SR Olive livery, a distinctive green colour scheme used by Southern Railway. The model includes a range of detailed features, including elliptical roofs, electric lighting and Fox pattern bogies.

Internal and external details are fully modelled, allowing modellers to create a realistic representation of a 1940s carriage. The model also includes working lighting, allowing modellers to accurately recreate the interior of the carriage. The carriage is designed to be coupled to other models using NEM coupling pockets and a kinematic coupling mechanism. An optional 'vacuum pipe' close coupling bar is also provided, allowing modellers to add an extra level of detail to their model.
