Our range includes:

  • SR-type 4 EPB, 2 EPB and 2 HAP units - a perfect fit with Bachmann BR-type EPB fleets

  • The characterful 2 Wim units rebuilt from LBSCR a.c. overhead stock dating back to 1909. 

  • Isle of Wight steam-hauled passenger stock, ideal companions for the EFE '02' tank engines.

These coaches, with their characteristic centre saloons, were used across the entire system but were particularly associated with the Newport-based sets of 2, 3 or 4 cars used on the less busy branches.

Formerly lavatory brake composites, these cars had the former van space converted into two extra compartments.

Drafted to the island in 1936 as part of the Southern Railway’s project to replace the island’s remaining 4 wheelers, these former Brighton line coaches remained largely in their original condition.

LONDON UNDERGROUND

'Q' STOCK

Q23 H.jpg

Q23

The oldest type in the Q stock fleet, the starkly angular Q23s survived until the end of Q stock operations in 1971.  Q23 driving motor no. 4248 is on display at the London Transport Museum, Covent Garden.

Q27 H.jpg

Q27

The Q27 driving motor cars had a neater and more modern external appearance than the Q23s, with smoothed sides, rounded edges and the District Railway’s traditional dome-ended clerestory roof, illustrating the influence on the company of American rapid-transit practice.

Q35 H.jpg

Q35

These handsome-looking cars represent the final evolution of District Railway clerestory stock design.

Q38 H.jpg

Q38

The flare-sided Q38 cars were the most modern in the Q stock fleet and looked radically different to their clerestory-roofed companions.  Built as trailers but with the eventual intention to convert them to driving motors, they were built with cab doors at one end sealed out of use.
