1965Nick Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Hi, I’ve a project underway to build a lot of Mark 1 suburban coaching stock in 2mm finescale for a King Cross Suburban model. Has anyone got any suburban stock photos to share? It would be interesting to see details of ends and interiors. I know there’s a brilliant book available but the 2nd hand prices are sky high. Here’s my contribution an end view of a SLO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Have a look here. Loads of photos. No sign in necessary. https://www.facebook.com/Llangollen-Railway-Suburban-Group-254004905093772/ If the book you mean is the BR Mark One book by Parkin, unfortunately there is very little on the Suburban stock in it. Worth picking up the supplement though as ISTR it has drawings of them in it. https://hmrs.org.uk/publications/books/books-in-print/british-railways-mark-1-coaches-supplement.html Jason 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomag Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Try the VCT database for pictures of preserved coaches, most Mk1 suburban coaches which survive come from the ER. http://www.cs.rhrp.org.uk/se/results.asp is a a list of BS with photos.
