Complete your mid-century passenger rake with this clean Hornby R421 ex-LNER Gresley Corridor Composite Coach!

Representing the backbone of 1950s British Railways regional and express transport, this R421 model features the iconic Crimson & Cream ("Blood and Custard") livery. Bearing the specific running number E18276, this model is designed with distinct multi-class compartment seating arrangements, full corridor side glazing, and classic Gresley bogies. It acts as the perfect mid-train companion piece to a matching brake composite coach on any authentic Eastern Region layout.

🚂 Prototypical Haulage: What Pulls This Coach?

Mainline Steam: LNER Class A1, A3, or A4 Pacifics (such as Flying Scotsman or Mallard in BR Express Passenger Green), LNER V2 2-6-2s, or Thompson B1 Class 4-6-0 locomotives.
Transition-Era Diesels: Early East Coast Main Line traction including British Rail Class 40s ("Whistlers"), early Class 31s, or prototype Class 55 Deltics.
