Old Coach

[DVT82305]

I bought this coach yesterday at the Helston Railway shop at Trevarno and I don't know who the company was in the 1920's 1930's?

What scale is that?

Chocolate Brown and cream suggests GWR to me - along with the connection with Helston.

Any chance of getting a larger picture of the crests on the doors?i

This is another example.

However have a browse through here:

EDIT:

Wikipedia has a good image of the coat of arms. Unfortunately all the photos I've seen have only one centrallyy placed

EDIT 2

Bear in mind RTR models in the past were not necessarily accurate. Is there a makers name on it?

This site features a range of old model manufacturers catalogues:

It's actually a Caledonian Railways coach, made by Hornby.

The body colour is maroon, rather than chocolate brown.
