Hornby R40061 LSWR, 1st Class, 123-Era 2 Coach, Brown

This four-wheeled coach is a representation of the many that served on the London and South Western Railway (LSWR) in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Their small size enabled the traversing of tight radius curves, making them especially well-suited for branch line work, while their lower passenger numbers meant their size was more acceptable and allowed for trains to be hauled by smaller engines.

The LSWR coach is modelled with step boards to enable access at stations with low platforms, and it is equipped with oil lamp lighting. This coach is in the LSWR livery and has a satin finish.

The era represented is Pre-Grouping, which spans from 1870 to 1922. This period precedes the grouping of the railway companies in the United Kingdom, which occurred in 1923.

The scale of this model is 1:76, which corresponds to the 00 Gauge.

In summary, this four-wheeled coach is a faithful representation of the rolling stock that operated on the London and South Western Railway during a significant period in British railway history. Its small size, accessibility features, and authentic livery and lighting make it a valuable addition to any 00 Gauge model railway collection.
