From the 1920s onwards the GWR used the term 'B set' to designated a formation of two coaches used principally for branch and local passenger services. A number of 'B sets' were purpose built, comprising two identical brake composite coaches. These coaches contain compartments for first and third class passengers, plus space for the guard, passenger luggage, mail and parcels and were coupled with guards' vans at the outer ends of the train.

This 2 coach pack from Dapol models replicates one of these short trains, which would often be hauled by one of the small GWR tank engines, including the 14xx class 0-4-2s, 57xx class panniers and 45xx class 2-6-2 prairies.

A highly detailed model of the LMS design of engineers inspection saloon car, a type which has had a long life with the national railway network and many now available for hire on heritage railways.
Inspection saloons were used by the divisional civil and signal engineers to make site visits before major engineering projects and to inspect track and structures where local staff had reported developing faults. The two slaoons were equiped with end windows for track and signal viewing and large tables allowing drawings and plans to be laid out for discussion. Between the saloons a small kitchen was provided, from which the steward could supply refreshments and even conjure up a full meal if required.

This model carries the British railways maroon livery with maroon ends.
