DESCRIPTION: This is a brand new item with its box in new condition. (Ref: 2826)

DESIGN: 

Mk3 coaches were built between 1975 and 1988. They were similar to the later air-conditioned (air-con) Mk2 coaches, except they were 75 feet long compared to the previous standard length of 64½ feet. A variant of the Mk3 became the rolling stock for the High Speed Train (HST), which were built between 1975 and 1982. These were designed to run at 125mph and reduce journey times on Inter-City routes. They have operated on principle services out of Paddington, Euston, St Pancras and Kings Cross, as well as cross-country services. 

BRAND:

London North Eastern Railway, which is owned by the DfT OCR Holdings for the Department of Transport, took over the InterCity East Coast franchise in June 2018 from the privately owned Virgin East Coast (VTEC). It was later announced that the company holds the franchise until 2025, running long distance services from London Kings Cross to Leeds, Newcastle and Edinburgh.

HIGH SPEED TRAINS: 

We specialise in providing quality High Speed Trains, which are always in stock in various liveries - further details available on request. 

GRADING (A VERY ROUGH GUIDE ONLY):

Most of our items are in mint/near mint condition but sometimes brand new stock is available. We realise that different people will grade differently, so formulating an 100% fool-proof system is impossible. The description and pictures should therefore be taken as the best guidance for the product, but here is a very general guide on how our items are graded: 

MINT = Item is in perfect condition with no signs of use

NEAR MINT = Item is almost perfect with the odd minor imperfection

VERY GOOD = Item is undamaged but may have light markings, imperfections or signs of wear

GOOD = Item is still in a reasonable condition but play worn with only light damage or repair

FAIR = Item is noticeably play worn possibly with some damage but is still usable

POOR = Item is damaged or unusable without repair and treated as Spares and Repairs
