Metropolitan Cammell built 29 Pullman cars of 5 different body types: Kitchen 1sts and 3rds, Parlour 1sts and 3rds and Parlour Brake 3rds - we will offer all 5 body types in train packs to allow prototypical formations to be assembled. A further 4 cars (81-84) were built in 1931 for the Bournemouth Belle.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSome of the K-types were used by the GWR on Ocean-Liner and Torquay Pullman services from 1929, but perhaps the more famous use was by the LNER and then BR in services such as the Queen of Scots, Tees-Tyne Pullman, Yorkshire Pullman and Master Cutler. By the mid-late 1960s some of the K-types were being used with other Pullman types (particularly the brakes) but unfortunately some were disposed of for scrap. A few of the K-types continue to see service in the Venice Simplon Orient Express (VSOE) and a number survive to this day in preservation.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOur model will feature our usual high levels of detail and include interior lighting and working table lamps. The VSOE\/British Pullman pack contain the modern variations with Gresley bogies and underframe trussing.\"\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Revolution Trains","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57252553785724,"sku":"RT-KP-VSOE-231A","price":179.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/3048\/7164\/files\/RT-KP-VSOE-231A_2b6df47c-38f9-4246-9622-7460ae7dea13.jpg?v=1786092896","url":"https:\/\/www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com\/products\/rt-kp-vsoe-231a-revolution-trains-all-steel-k-type-pullmans-vs","provider":"Kernow Model Rail Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
