GWR Dean S1 4 Compartment 2nd/3rd 4 wheel coach

Zip archve

The initial publication of this coach is an attempt to make a simple model for the "Christmas tree" project.

Some discussion is needed to simplify the design to make it easy to print. Currently the break gear on the ends of the coach are rather fragile and the body, if printed on a resin printer probably needs dividing into two for most printers.

The smaller components were designed for resin printing. The body, when resin printer is in two parts.

S1 - 4 compartment second later converted to third class.

4 wheels

25' x 8' - 18' wheelbase

100 built between 1871 and 1872 in 2 lots

Coach numbers 287 to 326 and 327 to 386
