Coaches for Lady Patricia


Recommended Posts

I found a new "Lady Patricia" 4-6-2 and I'd like to what (in OO scale) would be appropriate for her to pull? I had her hard at work, today, pulling four "Orient Express coaches by Jouef (HO); but, I knew that it was not realistic.

 

Can someone help?

Welcome to RMweb. :)

 

The livery is appropriate for the early fifties, (roughly 1949 - 1952 - I don't know the exact dates for 'Lady Patricia') so LMS coaches* in late LMS maroon or BR crimson and cream. Possibly BR Mk Is in crimson and cream, though these only started to appear as the blue was being phased out.

 

* Principally Stanier corridor coaches.

It did a Birkenhead to Paddington run whilst on loan to the Western when the Kings were out of service according to this log http://locoperforman...08/46210lmn.htm
