Hornby – BR Departmental, ex-MK1 BCK, Test Coach ‘Mercury’, RDB975280 (R40214) OO Gauge

Disclaimer: This model car is hand-built. Due to the nature of hand-crafted miniatures, minor imperfections are to be expected. These are a normal part of the production process, as manufacturers work within set tolerances, meaning some small defects are considered acceptable. If you receive a model with a significant defect, we are happy to assist and will address the issue accordingly by offering a return or refund. However, please understand that minor imperfections do not qualify as faults but rather reflect the craftsmanship involved in creating these models. Thank you for your understanding and appreciation of these hand-built collectibles.

Test Coach 18 ‘Mercury’ was used to test the track based transponders utilised by the C-APT system. Throughout 1974 ‘Mercury’ would be coupled to almost any available West Coast Mainline train many times per day.

    Understanding Scale

    The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.

    • 1:12 scale: ~38 cm or 15 inches
