What's included in the Kit

One piece moulded sides, roof and floor form the backbone of the finished model. The sides are CNC machined to produce the various styles of BR Mk1 coach bodies from accurately profiled material which has been specially produced to our exacting standards. This produces a robust structure which will withstand the rigours of handling often experienced by exhibition models.

 

injection mounlded coach ends

The end panels of the mainline stock are injection mouldings and incorporate the bufferbeam and buffer stock detail. By moulding the buffer stocks with the bufferbeam you will never see an Easybuild coach with drooping buffers! The end panels of our suburban stock are also injection mouldings.

Truss rod mounting brackets are also moulded on the same sprue.

 

 

Bogies in kit

 

 

 

Injection moulded bogie frame components are complimented by what are considered by many modellers to be the best running wheels currently available, together with brass bearings.

Kits are supplied with BR 1B bogies as a standard fitment, however you can specify our new B4 bogie, or even Gresley style bogies for the stock which utilised them (see the bogies page for more details).
