Peco GR-557A FR Bug Box Coach, 3rd Class, Col. Stephens Livery, No.3
Welcoming the release of our NEW 'Colonel Stephens' Ffestiniog Railway 4-wheel 'Bug Box' coaches. We have paid a lot of attention to the livery characteristics of these coaches, ensuring that all details are as accurate as they can be, with some very fine printing detail and authentic colours. Free-running metal-tyred wheels are now fitted as standard to all of our new OO-9 releases.
Colonel Stephens was noted as a man who championed the minor railways of Great Britain, and during the 1920s & 30s he took control of the most famous of all Welsh narrow gauge railways; the Ffestiniog Railway. During this period, the livery chosen for rolling stock was green and red and it is this livery that is the subject of the latest releases from PECO.
