Hi,
If you go to Bachmann UK click on coaches it will show pictures of 5 of their coaches,4 63ft and 1 59ft,they are 2 composite coaches,1 First Class 1 Second and Brake 2nd.

Don't know if they will be any use but would give you a rough idea,just click on the picture to enlarge it.

I've scanned the Thompson drawings from the Nick Campling book.

PM me if you are intending to build them.
I thought of trying myself but my working-on folder is full of 21T mineral wagons.

Keep up the good work Dave. :D :D :D
What with new loco's and now new coaching stock, the Scottish Central Plus Route looks like being well worth waiting for. Don & I may have another surprise for you all. All will be revealed later in the year.

A Gresley BG would be useful.

I'll scan you a drawing.

I think you have covered all the coach types Dave. All we need now is a set of Thopmsons in Maroon, with the round toilet windows.

I think you may have to wait for the release of the Scottish Central Plus Route, before these will be available, as Dave is doing these specially for the SCP Stock Pack.

Hi Dave, yes got your email and coaches attachment. They look very nice. If you can do a similar set of Thompsons, that will be great.
