R40439 Hornby 3rd Class Coach of the L&MR

Novelty 2024 - 3rd Class Coach of the L&MR

Companies such as the Manchester, Bolton and Bury Railway, the Manchester and Leeds Railway, and the Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne and Manchester Railway all used open third-class carriages, mostly for standing passengers, but sometimes fitted with a rudimentary bench (or benches)
The introduction of third-class travel on the L&MR dates to April 1844, when the Board ordered new enclosed second-class coaches to replace the older 'blue boxes', which were then downgraded to third class.

This is an intricately detailed third-class coach model in a blue finish. The accessory bag contains two chain couplings.

Epoch: I

Length of each car over Buffers: 76 mm
