Slaters Plastikard O Gauge 7C035 MR/LMS 43ft Lavatory Brake Third Class Bogie Coach Kit (diagram 515)
This kit builds a detailed model of the Midland Railway design 43 foot length brake third class coach with lavatory compartments to diagram 515.
These Clayton arc roof bogie coaches remained in suburban and local passenger service throughout the LMS period, only slowly being replaced with newer stock.
Supplied with metal wheels and sprung buffers
Lavatory stock operated in 'Inter-District' sets. These short sets formed trains on secondary mainline services, stopping at principal stations not served by regular express trains and on cross-country services. Passengers could be travelling on these services for some hours, so a number of compartments were arranged to have access to the lavatory.
