Similarily, the GER W&U bogie coaches will also be available individually in LNER and BR liveries. This also includes a fictional 'what if' livery of BR Lined Maroon. These two coaches were built in 1884 and remained on the W&U until passenger services ended on Dec 31, 1927. Afterwards they were transferred Kelvedon and Tollesbury Light Railway where they continued in service until that line was closed by BR in 1951. Coach #7 is preserved at the North Norfolk Railway.
Seven version are to be made covering LNER, BR & Preserved. The coaches have a UK RRP of £74.95 with a current estimated Canadian RRP of $106.99 CAD.
