Hornby R4945 Virgin Trains Mk2F Brake Standard Open 9539

Hornby R4945 Virgin Trains Mk2F Brake Standard Open 9539.

The British Railways Standard Mark 2 coach was designed by BREL and first introduced in 1963 and the semi-integral construction dispensed with a separate underframe, giving the body greater strength and stiffness than the previous BR Standard Mk.1 stock. Certified for 100mph running, this was later increased to 110mph and the design of the coach evolved over the next ten years, culminating in the Mk.2F design that was built between 1973 and 1975; a stop gap measure produced until the British Rail Mk.3 coach could be introduced into service.

Virgin Trains used the Mk.2Fs, along with Mk.3s, on cross-country and mainline services right up until locomotive hauled services were curtailed.

This model is 268mm (length) and decorated in Virgin Trains Red/Grey livery.
