Many were built from old coach underframes that had had their bodies scrapped, with the type really coming to the fore in 1966 when British Rail launched its Motorail service, providing British holidaymakers with long distance train services where they could take their car on holiday with them, giving the convenience of independent transport whilst on holiday but without the long drive to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Bachmann Branchline model depicts a BR-built Carflat, which to all intents and purposes is a standard BR Mk1 coach underframe running on a pair of BR B1 bogies. The deck of the vehicle is planked, and low side railings are fitted to prevent vehicles from accidentally driving off the side. Unlike a Mk1 coach, the underside of the vehicle is not overly populated but still features the typical truss frame along with vacuum brake cylinders and, unlike Mk1 coaches, has hand brake levers.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMODEL FEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBachmann Branchline OO Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePristine Railease Yellow livery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning No. RLS94401\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessory Pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNEM Coupling Pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength 270mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bachmann Branchline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56690017698178,"sku":"39-903","price":42.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/0483\/9120\/files\/38-903.jpg?v=1780569336","url":"https:\/\/goinglocomodels.com\/products\/bachmann-38-903-br-pfb-carflat-wagon-railease-yellow-oo-gauge","provider":"Going Loco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
