British Railways Mk1 bus

The BR Mark 1 carriage stock was the first standardized design of railway carriages built by British Railways (BR) following nationalization in 1948, the locomotive-hauled passenger carriage family was built from 1951 to 1963 to augment and replace the series of "Big Four" and previous "pre-grouping" models inherited from LMS, LNER, GWR and SR. Non-passenger carrying Mk1 and multiple units based on the Mk1 concept continued in production until 1974.

Today, Mk1 buses are used for charter services on the main line, by companies such as the West Coast Railway Company, or on preserved railways such as the Severn Valley Railway, West Somerset, North Yorkshire Moors, East Lancashire and Spa Valley Lines, to name but few.

The Mk1 buses were built in many BR workshops and by outside contractors including Metro-Cammell, Cravens and Gloucester RCW. A wide range of vehicles was introduced to cover all kinds of traffic needs and mixed uses that the railway undertook in the 1950s: from catering to buffet counter to full service catering, first and second class accommodation, including composite vehicles with some of each, guard brake vans and baggage / newspaper / parcel / space animals, sleeping cars, general and specialized goods in post office vans and niche vehicles built in small quantities such as horse boxes. These non-passenger vehicles were shorter in length (usually 57 feet) than the standard 63 feet of their passenger counterparts.

The most common types that made up most of the express and secondary passenger trains include the first and second class, composite, open and aisle, suburban (compartment only), brake, buffet, restaurant and bed wagons. The study of prototype train formations is a whole topic and Bachmann Branchline provides the model range to create these trains in model form.

During their working life, Mk1 carriages have formed the backbone of all BR locomotive-hauled services at one time or another, until replaced with later Mk2 carriages, or stock of multiple units, in the case of many of the fleets. non-corridor Mk1 Suburban. Many famous trains such as the Flying Scotsman, the Belfast Boat Express (a late steam turn that lasted in 1968), the Cornishman, the Irish Mail, the Thames-Clyde Express, the Atlantic Coast Express (ACE), the Waverley , the Caledonian, the Devonian, Mayflower and Master Cutler all included Mk1 coaches when they were recently introduced. In other cases they ran in or alongside railway formations such as the Yorkshire Pullman, and formed the then numerous sleeper services that spanned the length and breadth of the 1960s rail network during dark hours.

Locomotive-hauled Mk1s were in frontline service for half a century, while their EMU counterparts and Thumper units lasted well into the mid-2000s. As a result, the Mk1 family carried the widest range of liveries of any passenger rolling stock, with only privately owned wagons featuring the greatest variety in UK railway history. Mk1 wore BR Carmine and Cream, BR Western Region Chocolate and Cream, BR Southern Green, BR Maroon, BR Blue, Blue and Gray, InterCity Executive, InterCity Charter, Network South East, Regional Railways, ScotRail, Sealink, Departmental, BR Exhibitions, Royal Mail, Traveling Post Office, Rail Express Systems, Provincial Trans Pennine, Parcels Red, West Highland Green and Cream, not to mention a myriad of post-privatization color schemes and heritage in conservation. Many Mk1s have also found further use in engineers and research departments, and these departmental uses are featured in the range as well.
