Bournemouth Belle Pullman set
I bought an 8 coach set from Golden Age Models to represent the Bournemouth Belle. It should be a little bit longer and the coaches I finally chose are not quite the Belle set since I fancied more variation, and it includes a bar car. Expensive, yes, but I could not and would not have managed the livery and it gave me a ready to run train. It was this purchase that made the decision to base the layout east, rather than west, of Bournemouth.
I also have an MMP BG for this set but that still has to be built.
Royal Wessex Mk 1 set green
I have nine out of eleven coaches for the Royal Wessex. These are JLTRT Mk 1s and they will be in green as running from 1957 to 1962. They have yet to be built although I have started on the bogies. This train also needs a two coach Bulleid restaurant set.
I have designed the layout so that this train can be split at Bournemouth into a 6 car set for Bournemouth West, a 3 car set for Weymouth and a 2 car set for Swanage.
See Royal Wessex for more information.
Bournemouth to York Mk 1 set maroon
This is a ready to run set from Heljan to give me another train to run now.
Bulleids
I am planning an 11 coach train of Bulleid stock with a similar make-up to the Royal Wessex as worked on the Bournemouth line. I am not keen on the Bulleid kits available at the moment although I have a CRT semi-open brake third to experiment with. I am developing Bulleid coaches in 3mm and may extend this to 7mm as well.
Maunsell
I have a 3-set from Slaters which is yet to be built.
Pull push
I have a pull push set from DJB which is yet to be built.
LNER sets
I have a couple of LNER sets inherited from my Dad.
