OO Gauge Autocoach
Dapol
Mar 18, 2023
All New OO Gauge Autocoach
Dapol is delighted to announce the launch of a brand new OO Gauge Auto coach at the London Festival of Model Railways 2023.
Prototype
Our model is based on the six coaches numbered 36 to 41 constructed during 1907 under Lot 1126 to Diagram ‘N ’. All were built new as driving trailers and not later conversions from old steam rail motors. They were used on branch lines from Cornwall to Wales and retained their gas lighting until withdrawn, the first in 1956, the last in November 1957. Number 38 is preserved on the Telford Steam Railway as pictured above.
