Product Description
RAILS OF SHEFFIELD EXCLUSIVE.
Rapido Trains UK is proud to announce that we are adding a second batch of liveries to our immensely popular OO Gauge 48’ ‘Evolution’ Bogie Coach range.
Expanding our range even further, we are covering more of Britain's companies and have chosen a nice selection of additional liveries from across the entire length of the British Isles, including several Scottish examples!
Much like the coaches from Batch 1, Evolution Batch 2 models are a selection of generic 48’ bogie coaches, each detailed with an array of key features that modellers associate with their pre-grouping railway of choice.

Arc, elliptical, and clerestory roof designs are included in the range, and the roofs are easily removable so that you can fit figures into your coaches should you wish.
There is also a multitude of separately fitted parts and interior details to bring the coaches to life, including luggage racks, picture frames on compartment dividers and passenger emergency alarm “butterflies” at one end.
All Evolution coaches are fitted with internal working lighting controlled by our magnetic magic wand.
We understand that the brightness of coach lighting is subjective. Some prefer them to be nice and bright so you can see all the lovely internal detail, whereas others wanted a more subtle effect to better reflect the lighting of the era. We have fitted a potentiometer to the lighting PCB which allows you to dim the lights to a level of your choosing. All you’ll have to do is remove the roof and turn it with a small screwdriver until you reach the brightness you desire.
To complete the appearance of different gas and electric lighting fittings, the relevant models will feature separately fitted parts for battery and regulator boxes, a dynamo, roof-mounted gas lamps, plumbing, and gas tanks on the underframes.
The coaches also feature Fox pattern bogies fitted with electrical pickups. Some versions will feature extra footboards on the bogies and there are also additional central lower footboards on some designs too.
