Hello again, I hope you all have been doing well.
Following the Teak carriages, I decided to make the Silver Jubilee coaches for my A4.Unfortantly I could not found any good pictures of the interior so, unlike the Teak set, these ones just have a place-holder from what I got from the blue prints. Nevertheless the exterior is all detailed. The fact the cars are divided into sets of articulated units made for a bit of a puzzle.

I sure had fun building them and hope you like them as much!

The project features the first class unit (first compartment car plus first brake car), dinning unit (first class restaurant, kitchen and third class restaurant cars) and the third class unit (two third class compartment cars plus the third brake car). This service introduced in 1935 by LNER between London King’s Cross and New Castle, with the stream lined articulated cars, had an average speed of 108km/h and the record speed of 180km/h.
