Im a big fan of those coaches. I might get a Hornby brake to respray and detail for use as crew van for a pm maintenance train. Would look quite nice with a Hattons tools van for variety instead of two with entirely the same body.
I opted for the BR crimson livery brake third and compartment first six-wheelers, and brake/baggage four-wheeler which make a delightful train with Hornby's J15. All these varieties should sell by the shipload. The lighting system couldn't be simpler; what a great idea using a reed switch and magnet. I also like the Mansell-pattern wheels; so characteristic of the era and a nice surprise.
Jenny, enjoyed this video, now I've got to go try to hunt down some LNER teaks - Hattons don't seem to have them, so becomes a hunt when trying to order from USA.
I preordered the NBR coaches and at the time of writing only the 4 wheeled versions have arrived. In terms of locos, the J36 by Hornby was tooled a few years ago and produced as 'Maude', but the J36 is a freight loco and caries the NBR Freight black livery. Hornby could have produced the J83 in either NBR Black or the Passenger olive as carried by the 2 Waverly station pilots, but AFAIK has never produced the J83 in either pre-grouping scheme.
HI Jenny nice collection there ive got a few my self lnwr lner and gwr at mo these are very addicted to collect i wonder if some liveries are a hint at loco that are in hornby pipeline? tar for sharing keep safe arp
There is a nice mix but none that appealed to me this time. I have ordered two of the Hatton's coach packs instead. I do have some Hornby locomotives on order however.
It's quite odd to modern eyes that so many old railway companies had completely different liveries for their locomotives and coaches. It's seems like greens for locomotives and browns for coaches was a popular combination. Modern companies have much more uniform branding.
Great video Jennifer E. Kirk. But want Livery did you buy out of your money thanks? I really like the 4 and 6 coaches but I like the Hatton's one a lot more as got NCB blue, LNWR, L&Y brown & umber on pre-order. But I do think the Hatton decorated samples of GWR livery look much better than the Hornby one. It great to see all of this Livery from Hornby and Hattons as it gives a great choice to the modeler to pick. With, there being over 120 Railway companies before the big four and not included all of the Industrial railways want to have 4 and 6 wheel coaches like coal and hospital, etc and private train line want people did have in the past plus the heritage railway. There could keep making these coaches for a super long time before there can't find more Livery to do. Great guide Jennifer E. Kirk and will you be doing a review on the Hattons one thanks? If Jennifer E. Kirk, we did not get the Hattons one I would pick this one from Hornby LNWR, GNR, LQSWR. There my list of the Hornby livery from most favorite livery to least favorite (1.LNWR 2.GNR 3.LQSWR 4.NBR 5.LNER 6.LBQSCR 7.SR 8.BR 9.GWR)
I’ve been waiting for someone to show them all off! Thanks for putting this together Jenny
Lovely to see the various liveries up close and personal!
For the record I've got a rake of four LNER ones, one of each body type. Very happy with them behind my N2.

Mundane? Anything but!! Absolutely beautiful coaching stock!!
Great looking coaches Jen

Thanks Jenny, lovely review. Those LNWR liveried coaches will be smashing with the LNWR “Precedents” from NRM and Rails of Sheffield.
would be nice to see them matched up with locos- I for one wouldn't know what to run together from this period ? great vid Jenny ..... Wales UK.

As to the underframe detail
blank = oil lighting
round tanks = gas lighting
& battery boxes = electric lighting
Great looking coaches. Waiting to see what my Hattons orders are like first
@@bentullett6068 Yes. I've ordered some GWR liveried coaches and some in BR crimson
Thanks 👍 this is perfect 😎 I was wondering about this subject as I've only recently started with trains and I learned a lot 😇
HI Jenny

They look very nice,i do hope they do become a "perenial"in the range?
I love the teak!

The coach livery for Great Western is BURNT UMBER and cream.
Is that LNWR carriage not mahogany and apple green? Very attractive AND interesting.
Great video
Jennifer E. Kirk. But want Livery did you buy out of your money thanks? I really like the 4 and 6 coaches but I like the Hatton's one a lot more as got NCB blue, LNWR, L&Y brown & umber

I thought that was the Great Northern livery!!
Found LNER AT KERNOW MODELS WITH EASE
HIS ABOUT A METROPOLITAN SET !
I don't think you mentioned the North British Railway ones in the range.
I approve of pre-grouping.
Hi
Just sent for two LNER 👍
Where is the North British coaches
I would call the LSWR livery is salmon and espresso rather than salmon and chocolate!!
We need L & Y
i hope hornby bring out a l n e r version .
I have 4 different 6 wheelers in LNER with lights, but the baggage car is still yet to come.
Shame there is no LMS or MR yet.
