British Rail's new corporate image of the mid-1960's saw the introduction of the familiar blue and grey passenger coach livery, along with the InterCity express train marketing brand. Plain blue diesel and electric locomotives hauled these coaches across the country for many years, with progressive advances in speed and passenger comfort. In the mid-1980's brightly coloured sector liveries began to appear, with principal expresses gaining a distinctive InterCity livery, while Network South East formed a coherent image for the commuter belt.

Bachmanns BR Mk.1 coaches are the best models yet of these popular coaches. Familiar to enthusiasts everywhere hundreds of these coaches are still in service on tour train sets and heritage railways.

This is a model of the composite side corridor design, with four first class and three second class compartments. E15768 is painted in the BR blue and grey livery used from the late 1960s onwards and carried on the smooth riding B4 pattern bogie.

This type of coach was often used to provide first class accomodations on short 4-5 coach cross-country trains, ideal for many model railways.
