Mk.2b Series Coaches: A New Era in 4mm Scale Rolling Stock

Accurascale is thrilled to introduce the latest addition to its esteemed range of rolling stock, the Mk.2b series of coaches. This exceptional model is a 'missing link' subclass that has never been produced in high-quality form in 4mm scale. Crafted with precision at Litchurch Lane, Derby, in 1969, these coaches were built for British Rail in three distinct designs: Tourist Second Open (TSO), Corridor First (FK), and Brake Corridor First (BFK). The Mk.2b series is a testament to Accurascale's commitment to detail and authenticity, offering collectors and model railroaders a truly remarkable addition to their layouts.

Superior Craftsmanship and Specifications

The Mk.2b series coaches are a marvel of craftsmanship, featuring highly-detailed OO Gauge/1:76.2 scale models on 16.5mm track. Each model boasts extremely fine exterior rivet detail on the roof and coach ends, as well as separately-applied etched metal and high-fidelity plastic parts. This includes handrails, brake/steam heat pipes, ETH cabling and sockets, footsteps, dummy drophead knuckle coupler, and roof vents. The Prism Free Glazing ensures crystal-clear windows, while the fully-detailed underframe with numerous separate parts and accurate differences between versions adds to the realism. The most accurate B4 and B5 bogies ever produced are included, with provision for re-gauging to EM or P4 gauges. Blackened RP25.110 profile wheel-sets with precise measurements make these models a delight to watch in motion.

Enhancing Your Layout and Collecting Experience

The Mk.2b series coaches are not just beautiful to look at; they also offer a wealth of practical benefits for your model railway layout. The Full lighting package includes magnet 'wand' controlled interior lighting, 'Stay-Alive' capacitors in all coaches, and directional lighting with DC or DCC control (for the Driving Trailer only). These features ensure that your coaches are both functional and visually stunning. With a minimum radius of 438mm (2nd Radius Set-track) and a coach length of 269mm, these models are perfect for enhancing any scale railway scene. Whether you are a seasoned collector or a new enthusiast, the Mk.2b series coaches are a must-have for anyone looking to create a highly detailed and authentic railway experience.
