Since Bachmann took over Graham Farish development, and much improved the BR Mk1 coach range, an incredible number have been produced - over 140 variations in all! These belong to 12 basic types and the model under review is a first class restaurant car (RFO). It is in crimson and cream livery and carries the number W8. The detail is very fine and includes 'First' and 'No Smoking' stickers on the windows. Detail is restricted to the outside of the coach as there is no interior unit.
