rob D2 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Hi, I’m looking at recreating this train so I can run some freight locos on passenger stock. around this time it ran with either blue / grey mk2s or NSE mk2s. I’m no expert on the difference between 2A,B,C ,but was hoping to use some of the relatively cheap Bachmann blue grey mk2a for this, can I get away with it or were they different ? Thanks for any help ! Edited June 9, 2019 by rob D2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

montyburns56 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 There are some detail differences between the 2A/B/C, but I suspect that most people wouldn't notice the difference. http://www.semgonline.com/coach/brmk2_1.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob D2 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Early 90s is what I’m aiming at. Ive trawled through a lot of photos and the variety is outstanding . You have petrol. 47s, Dutch 37swith blue grey mk2s ( mix of 2A,b ) it seems as well as RR mk2s, NSE mk1/2 and all sorts of locos Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padishar Creel Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Hallo, To help identify coaches on a photo or in a clip, Mk2a seconds have a centre door, at at one end there is a toilet between the door and the coach end. Mk2b/c have no centre door, have wrap around end doors and the toilet is between the door and the seating area. Looking at the roof, 2c have very flat vents (I have forgotten the name) 2b are more prominent. Hope this helps es grüßt pc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
