its another batch of the Dapol CIE 1950's coachs ...one in the black and tan and a break in the green livery:dancing:

 

Do you know if such would be scale repo's of laminates or bredins or other? :)

Are these different from the green coaches that come in the Bachmann set with the green Woolwich or in the train pack? Which if either of these is a more accurate representation of .... what is this supposed to be? Laminate stock. I thought that the Bachmann set and pack came with a brake and there are a few singles at least in the US market? (old thread seemed to have modelers looking for a brake)

The bachmann coaches were based on LMS compartment stock, think they're supposed to 'represent' pre GSR stock. CIE did not have anything quite like them, but likely the NCC did.

Don't know what the Dapol one was originally meant to be.

 

They look ok, the eau de nil waistband annoys me though. Far too wide.

been on to Marks again and the invoices have arrived and the currier was supposed to land today. invoices states that there will be a standard and break coach in black and tan AND in the green livery. :)

Are the Bachmann green coaches in the Irish Railway set, pack and individually prototypical of that period? I know the ones at Marks Models are not but if neither are strictly correct, I guess we might be able to mix and match the greens? Any thoughts on this?
