The British Rail Mark 1 coaches were not suitable for higher speed rail services, as the 1960s saw them being replaced by diesel and electric locomotives. However, these coaches were a perfect complement for steam locomotives. In 1964, the Mark 2 coach was introduced, which was entirely made of steel. Although the Mark 2 was a progression from the Mark 1, the two shared almost no common parts and only a passing resemblance.

The Mark 2 coaches were commonly seen in the BR Blue and Grey livery and Network South East colours, primarily hauled by larger express diesel and electric locomotives such as the Class 40, 47, and 86. As of 2022, the only Mark 2 coaches still in service are those that are part of the Network rail fleet.

The Mark 2 F sub-categories had plastic internal panelling with new-style seats. Visually, they were similar to the Mark 3 coach, although there were obvious differences, with the length being the most notable. These coaches also had heating and air conditioning, as debuted on the Mark 3 prototypes.

Combine a small world with big ideas, making model railways easier for those with limited space. You are about to embark on a hobby that can last a lifetime, one that combines design and creativity with history and travel, and can bring generations and families together. If you are working with a young person, it is probably best to start off with one of the Hornby TT:120 train sets and build your layout from there.

The current UK mainstream model railway scales are '00' and 'N'. Hornby's Table Top scale, TT:120, sits in between the two. TT:120 is smaller than '00' and can easily fit on a baseboard that can be stored in small spaces in your home. TT:120 models can easily be handled by both the young and old.

Explore Hornby's range of TT:120 scale model wagons and coaches. From Brake and Vent vans to Composite Corridors and Tourist Standard Opens, Hornby's TT rolling stock has a vast range of models to elevate your model railway.
