Hi all

Over the moon that Hornby's new J15 has arrived. Picking mine up next Saturday and cant wait!
My question is can anyone suggest the most suitable coaching stock to use with it? I am having the Late BR variant.
I know I only need two coaches but cant identify the most suitable from the present range (from either Hornby or Bachmann)

Any help gratefully received.

David

They were mainly for freight, but passenger stock would probably be Gresley or Thompson non-corridor coaches for a branch line passenger service. And remember, some branch passenger trains might have a van or two (vacuum braked) coupled on the rear.

Thanks for the guidance, confirmed what I wondered but was not sure on,
Well I bought my J15 at the weekend and my trader had some of the Thompson suburbans so I grabbed a third and a brake third to go with it.
Put them on the layout on Sunday and they look great.
