With operations beginning in 1874, carriages built by the Pullman Car Company introduced a new level of opulence to rail travel in North America and the UK. The epitome of luxury rail travel, Pullman cars featured rich interior furnishings, sophisticated dining and a stand-out umber and cream livery.
Hornby’s Pullman Brake Third is based on a 1930s ‘K-Type’ diagram with wooden chassis. Third class cars carried numbers rather than names, with the Brake baring ‘Car No. 162’, but it still features a high specification finish with full interior detail, curtains, elaborate crests and even working table lamps. Car 162 is accurate as a car operating on the LNER’s East Coast Mainline in the 1930s (eras 2/3) but was also later found on the Southern region.
An unrivalled addition to invoke the Golden Age of rail travel in Britain, this additional Pullman brake car is a perfect expansion for both Hornby’s TT:120 The Scotsman trainset and companion to the growing range of express passenger locomotives. With two identities available, Car No. 162 is sure to complete any TT:120 Pullman train from the 1920s through to the British Railways era.
