<p>In-order to allow running at 125 mph on Britain's railways, new rolling stock was needed by British Railways, and a new Mark entered service in 1975. Significant improvements over the Mk2 included new secondary air suspension between the bogies and the coach body as well as aerodynamic skirting on the underframe. Mk3 Coaches are 75ft (23m) long enabling far greater capacity than older coaches. Mk3 coaches also incorporate disk breaks and wheel slip protection enabling faster deceleration.The first Mk3 Coaches to be delivered were used as part of the HST prototype along with the two Class 41 diesel power cars in 1972. Mk3 coaches entered service in 1975 along with the Class 43 forming the iconic InterCity 125 trainset.After the HST Mk3 Coach variant was introduced, further Mk3 Coaches were introduced to the West Coast Mainline for use as part of locomotive hauled trains. Mk3s remain in service as part of HSTs with East Midlands Railway among other companies.</p><p>The British Rail Mk3 Coach was developed primarily for the Class 43 HST, but incorporated design features to enable it to be hauled by conventional locomotives. The first coach entered service in 1975 and the last were made in 1988. Most Mk3 Coaches built are still in service today, including a part of the Royal Train.</p><h3>Specifications</h3><ul> <li>Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 30.3</li> <li>Item Height - Without Packaging (cm): 5</li> <li>Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 3.5</li> <li>Item Weight - Without Packaging: 0.19</li> <li>Item Scale: 1:76 Scale 00 Gauge</li> <li>Finish: Painted</li> <li>Colour: Blue</li> <li>Operator: East Midlands Railway</li> <li>Designer: Sir Kenneth Grange</li> <li>Livery: East Midlands Red/Blue</li> <li>Minimum Curve (mm): Radius 2</li> <li>Number of Parts: 1</li> </ul>

The new operator, named LNER in reference to operator of train services in the area between 1923 and 1948, is owned by the Department for Transport and currently awarded the franchise until at least 2025. LNER inherited a large fleet of IC 125 and IC 225 sets, but quickly began replacing the ageing stock with more modern Hitachi built high-speed multiple units. The last IC 125 train operated by LNER ran as part of a farewell tour at the end of 2019.</p> <h4>Includes</h4> <ul> <li>1x Rolling stock Coach</li> </ul> <h4>Technical Specifications</h4> <div> <ul> <li>Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 30.3</li> <li>Item Height - Without Packaging (cm): 5</li> <li>Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 3.5</li> <li>Item Weight - Without Packaging: 0.19</li> <li>Item Scale: 1:76 Scale 00 Gauge</li> <li>License: Yes</li> <li>License line: Produced under license for SCMG Enterprises Ltd. ©SCMGE.</li> <li>Finish: Painted</li> <li>Colour: Red</li> <li>Operator: LNER</li> <li>Designer: BREL</li> <li>Livery: LNER Red</li> <li>Minimum Curve (mm): Radius 2</li> <li>Number of Parts: 1</li> </ul> </div>

<h3>Victorian Railways Welded IZ Open Wagon Lever Handbrake</h3> <p>The wagons represented by this kit were constructed at various VR workshops in 1938 and 1939 as grain proof GZ wagons, numbered 1701-2000. By the mid 1950s the VR had constructed a large fleet of GY wagons and the GZ wagons, which had a smaller cubic capacity than the GY, were downgraded to general goods traffic and recoded IZ, retaining the same numbers and load rating of 16/27 Tons.</p> <p>During 1963/64 there was a spate of derailments that were traced to 'W' irons of 27 Ton capacity IZ and HZ wagons cracking where they were riveted to the underframe. The solution adopted was to replace the 'W' irons and reclassify the wagons RY, retaining the same numbers, but with a reduced load rating of 16/22 Tons. The handbrake rigging was also changed in the mid 1960s and it is most likely that this change was made concurrent with the change in code from IZ to RY as the wagons were passing through the workshops.</p> <p>Welded iZ with original handbrake rigging.</p> <p><em>Models illustrated have been fitted with couplers (not included).</em></p>

<h3>FX / VPFX Bulk Flour Wagon</h3><p>17 of these pneumatic discharge wagons were constructed between 1966 and 1971, they were numbered FX1 to 17. The first series FX 1 to 6 were built at Newport Workshops, the second series FX 7 to 17 were built at Ballarat North Workshops. The original series of wagons were designed so that two of the four hoppers were unloaded from each end. The second series differed from the first series by means of a single discharge point, via additional piping and manifold, at each end of the wagon. When the wagons were first delivered they were finished in silver with a small VR logo, later many of the series received flour company branding and some were also repainted white. Later their use was expanded to cover burnt lime (VPLX) and dried locomotive sand (VZGX).</p><p>Whilst coded FX denoting suitability for bogie exchange they were predominantly used on the broad gauge between Albury NSW and Williamstown Pier and Westall, in the mid-80s some ran on standard gauge to Enfield and Canberra.</p><h3>Model Features:</h3><ul> <li>Highly detailed Ready-to-Run HO scale model</li> <li>Injection moulded high quality plastic body</li> <li>Etched metal walkways</li> <li>Full brake rigging and underfloor detail</li> <li>Semi scale metal rimmed wheels</li> <li>Genuine Kadee #158 whisker coupler</li> <li>18” Minimum radius recommended</li> </ul>
