Detailed Description

Never before produced in ready-to-run form in any scale, accurascale is excited to reveal the latest addition to its eagerly-anticipated range of 4mm/OO gauge Mk.2 coaching stock, the late-style Mk.2c variant with their characteristic small 'air con'-style toilet windows. Famously designed to be retrofitted with air-conditioning equipment, a modification that never took place, 150 vehicles were built at Litchurch Lane, Derby, in 1969-70 to five designs (out of 250 Mk.2c in total), primarily for the London Midland Region: Tourist Second Open (TSO), Corridor First (FK), Open First (FO), Brake Corridor First (BFK) and Brake Open Second (BSO). In the 1980s four further types were introduced, SK and SO (declassified from first class), Corridor Composite (converted from FK for Scottish Region services) and a mini buffet with trolley space, known as TSO(T). All nine of these versions will feature in our production.

Common Features:
  • Highly-detailed OO Gauge / 1:76.2 Scale Models on 16.5mm track
  • Extremely fine exterior rivet detail on roof and coach ends
  • Separately-applied etched metal and high-fidelity plastic parts, including handrails, brake/steam heat pipes, ETH cabling and sockets, footsteps, dummy drophead knuckle coupler, and roof vents
  • Prism Free Glazing
  • Pre-painted etched metal water filler covers provided for customer to install
  • Fully-detailed underframe with numerous separate parts, pipe runs and accurate differences between versions
  • The most accurate B4 bogies ever produced, with provision for re-gauging to EM or P4 (18.83mm) gauges
  • Blackened RP25.110 profile wheel-sets with 14.4mm back-to-back measurements, and 26mm over pinpoints
  • Different buffers for retracted and non-retracted positions
  • Accurate interiors with characteristic 'winged' headrests, separate metal interior handrails on the brake and corridor vehicles and fully-detailed guard's compartment
  • Correct height NEM standard coupling sockets with mini tension lock couplers and kinematic close-coupling
  • Easy conversion to Kadee-compatiable knuckle couplers
  • Full lighting package, including
  • magnet 'wand' controlled interior lighting
  • 'Stay-Alive' capacitor in all coaches
  • directional lighting with DC or DCC control (Driving Trailer only)
  • Minimum Radius 438mm (2nd Radius Set-track)
  • Coach Length: 269mm

Excellent

Really impressed with the finish, colours and detail interiors. Free running, although not in the corners unfortunately. Looking forward to more in the future.

Very nice

The coach is very well made and has some weight to it, the detailing pack of pipes and wires is extensive, covering most any era or style, I fitted the magnetic couplers and it brings them nice and close even round 2nd radius curves, I like the fact that there is a wand that you move around the centre to turn the lights on and off, lovely coach

Terrific Addition

Wasn't sure about this one as I already had a rake of Mk2b's but didn't have an FO so I jumped in and knew I wouldn't be disappointed. Another fantastically detailed and executed model with faultless running characteristics , even on my rubbish test track.

BR Blue Mk2 Coach

Wow what a superb model. This BR MK2 Blue and Grey Coach is the best model I have seen in 4mm. The Products packaging is amazing , the box the leaflet on the subject which is so informative. Then you see how detailed this item is and the way its been manufactured to a high level. The detail inside and the boogies are excellent. Smooth wheels as well. Winner 10/10 - Very pleased with it indeed.

Ordered this and waited, but well worth the wait.
Such a wow factor on taking it out of its box I immediately ordered another and was lucky enough to secure it.
Really looking forward to more RTC and engineering examples especially one off’s. Well done everyone super work. 👍

Another superb item. Fortunately there were not many of these on the WR during my period but it complements the 2B’s very well.

Great Mk2c First Open

Another great job done by Accurascale, crisp paintwork and lettering, superb interior, exterior and chassis detail with the addition of switchable on/off interior lighting, detailing pack includes pipes, curtains and a mixture of couplings to close couple carriages together. A+++++

Great product, only had one step detached across 4 coaches, it would be nice to have the option to fit a chip and control lighting.
