Peco GR-401B Lynton & Barnstaple Railway composite coach 6365 in Southern Railway green livery.
This model of the L&B enclosed composite coach with compartments for 1st and 3rd class passengers faithfully recreates coach 6364 of the Southern Railway in green livery. Modelled from official drawings, contempary notes and photographs, although at first glance the coach appears to be quite plain, close inspection reveals a wealth of subtle detail in the painting and printing.
The Lynton and Barnstaple Railway ordered 16 passenger carriages from the Bristol Wagon and Carriage Works Co. The vehicles delivered were among the largest and best equiped narrow gauge coaches running in Britain and, of substantial construction, stood up well to service across the North Devon moors. All joined the Southern Railway stock in 1923 and received a coat of Maunsell olive green, which they retained until the closure of the L&B in 1935.
