Models
The British Railways Mark 2 design has been manufactured by many of the British model railway manufacturers. These carriages have been fairly popular, although they are not produced in such large numbers as the younger Mark 3 stock. Bachmann Branchlines, Hornby, Lima, and Mainline have all produced models of the Mark 2 coach in recent years. The majority of these cars are Mk2E/F cars, although Hornby does offer Mk2A/B models (possibly re-tooled models from the former Lima range).
Model railway manufacturers today provide examples of the FO, TSO, BSO, and also buffet cars. They are offered in a range of liveries such as Virgin Trains, First Great Western, British Rail, and Network South East.

Famous quotes containing the word models:
“... your problem is your role models were models.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
“Friends broaden our horizons. They serve as new models with whom we can identify. They allow us to be ourselves—and accept us that way. They enhance our self-esteem because they think we’re okay, because we matter to them. And because they matter to us—for various reasons, at various levels of intensity—they enrich the quality of our emotional life.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
“The greatest and truest models for all orators ... is Demosthenes. One who has not studied deeply and constantly all the great speeches of the great Athenian, is not prepared to speak in public. Only as the constant companion of Demosthenes, Burke, Fox, Canning and Webster, can we hope to become orators.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
