Not so, I looked at the HRA carriages database and looking at it is is just a plain Mk2, not a Mk2a etc...
The top ones are in the same number series. (Judging by the TSO)

Oh aye Paul, you could do them on that model, just I presumed by Carls current work that he'd have a bash on the Mk2F model

BATs are doing mk2s in various forms on their upcoming EH2 release, if you look at the forums there are preview pics that are staggering! The usually allow reskins to be uploaded so that might be your best bet. For aircon Mk2s E-rail are probably your best bet.
