A new model of the early design of BR mark 2 coaches. These coaches featured semi-integral construction, providing a much stronger body structure than the separate underframe and body arrangeemnts used previously while delivering more usable internal space for passengers. Mk.2A was a revised design based on service experience of the initial Mk.2s and incorporating a number of new materials, including easily cleaned plastic surfaced panelling.
This model is of the Mk.2A second class brake coach with open plan seating, office for the guard and space for luggage, parcels and mails to be stowed.
