What are engines without coaches? So, in 1952, to go along with the pre-grouping engines, a set of 8 coaches was released at a cost of 2/6d.
6 color cards made up the set - two of these had 2 smaller coaches each ion them. The coach set included LB&SC 4 wheeled coaches (2), an LNWR Compo Coach (?), an MR Compo Coach, an L&SWR Restaurant Car for the hungry, a GWR 6 wheeled coach,and lastly 2 GER coaches.
Strangely enough these were not considered to be part of the "railway" series, being numbered as part of the Miscellaneous Sets!
