First conceived in 1946 by the Southern Railway (SR) but halted by Nationalisation in 1948, the SR’s plans re-emerged as part of the British Transport Commission’s ‘Modernisation Plan’ in 1955. Built as 4-coach units, the first 4-CEPs emerged from Eastleigh Works in 1956 formed of two Driving Motor Brake Seconds (DMBS), a Trailer Second Corridor (TSK) and a Trailer Composite Corridor (TCK). Using the standard BR Mk1 Coach profile, many Mk1 fittings like windows and doors were employed on the CEPs which were named so because they were corridor units which were fitted with electro pneumatic brakes, in addition to their Westinghouse automatic air brakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA total of 111 4-CEPs were built between 1956 and 1963 along with 22 4-BEPs which featured a Trailer Restaurant Buffet (TRB) in place of the TSK. The first units entered service on the Central division, whilst the majority were allocated to the South Eastern division and a small batch was ordered for use on the South Western division. In addition to the 4-CEPs and 4-BEPs, ten Motor Luggage Vans (MLVs) were built and 13-coach train formations consisting two 4-CEPs, a 4-BEP and a MLV were employed on boat trains operating between London and Kent’s channel ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy the 1970s the units were showing their age and with no funding available to replace the fleet, a refurbishment programme was initiated with the work undertaken at BR’s Swindon Works, following the successful trial refurbishment of the first unit at Eastleigh Works. Interiors were stripped and the blue asbestos insulation removed. DMBS vehicles had their guard’s compartment removed and they were converted to Driving Motor Second Opens (DMSO) whilst the TSK was rebuilt as a Trailer Second Open (TSO). The TCK remained as a corridor vehicle becoming a Trailer Brake Composite (TBCK), with a new guard’s compartment fitted between the first class accommodation and the sole remaining second class compartment.

By now, some units had been reduced to 3-cars and others followed, with the TSO vehicle – which had seen the least bodywork undertaken during refurbishment and by now were suffering from corrosion – usually being the vehicle taken out to reduce sets to 3 cars. Wholesale withdrawals did not commence until the 21st century however, when new units were delivered during a push to eliminate ‘slam-door’ rolling stock for reasons of safety and modernisation. The final unit in traffic was 4-CEP No. 1698 which was withdrawn in September 2005, bringing to an end 49 years of operations and making the CEPs the longest-lived BR Mk 1 EMUs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47653096816917,"sku":"31-420SF","price":559.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0073\/9291\/9599\/files\/31-420sfclass41193-cep3-caremu_refurbished_1199southwesttrainssoundfitted-27888-large.jpg?v=1700063777"},{"product_id":"bachmann-31-420-class-411-9-3-cep-3-car-emu-refurbished-1199-south-west-trains","title":"Bachmann 31-420 Class 411\/9 3-CEP 3-Car EMU (Refurbished) 1199 South West Trains","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Bachmann Branchline 4-CEP Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) broke new ground when it was first released and now we’ve created new bodyshells for this award winning model to bring you these new models depicting the refurbished units.

DMBS vehicles had their guard’s compartment removed and they were converted to Driving Motor Second Opens (DMSO) whilst the TSK was rebuilt as a Trailer Second Open (TSO). The TCK remained as a corridor vehicle becoming a Trailer Brake Composite (TBCK), with a new guard’s compartment fitted between the first class accommodation and the sole remaining second class compartment.

These aerodynamic power cars were constructed by British Railways Engineering Ltd at their Crewe Works and emerged in June and August 1972, fitted with Paxman Valenta 12RP200L engines, developing 2,250 hp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power cars, having initially been numbered 41001 and 41002, were later given the coaching stock numbers 43000 and 43001 for operating trials on the Eastern Region and subsequent transfer to the Western Region. Following evaluation and a change of name to High Speed Train, British Rail placed orders for similar trains for use on the Western, Eastern, Scottish and London Midland Regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen originally built at BREL's Crewe Works, the InterCity 125 units were considered to be diesel multiple units and allocated as Class 253 to the Western Region and Class 254 for the Eastern Region. With the introduction of Trailer Guard Second (TGS) carriages, later power cars had no guard's equipment installed and by 1987 most power cars were simply classified as Driving Motor (DM), although they still had luggage van space, retaining a window by the luggage door on each side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing problems with the power cars and the operational ease of removing power cars to perform scheduled maintenance, unit formations were abandoned, resulting in the Class 43 locomotive prefix being adopted. The 197 Class 43 power cars produced between 1976 and 1982 were numbered 43002 to 43198 and are officially the fastest diesel units in the world. The units have an absolute maximum speed of 148mph (238kph), which is the current world diesel traction record, set on November 1, 1987.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1987, for trial purposes, eight of the Class 43s were converted for use as Driving Vehicles with the Class 89 and Class 91 locomotives. The power cars were fitted with buffers and Time Division Multiplex (TDM) equipment that allowed them to directly control the other locomotive. Following the delivery of British Rail's Mk 4 coaching stock, the TDM equipment was removed and the power cars reverted to their normal duties, retaining their buffers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the late 1990s, twenty-five of the Class 43s were updated with Paxman 12VP185L engines in an attempt to reduce fuel consumption and emissions; however these proved to be less reliable in service than was hoped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnit number 43238 was built in February 1977 and would go on to serve BR high speed services in both the BR blue and grey livery as well as the InterCity executive guise. By 2019 the unit would find itself in service with LNER, awaiting a transition to service with the East Midlands Railway. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn preparation for this the locomotive was painted out of its LNER colour scheme and into an all over red scheme with a yellow front panel, a livery which could simply have a vinyl EMR loco added to it when the time came to transition companies. This colour led to the unit being nicknamed the 'Flying Tomato'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnit 43305 entered service in the winter of 1978 with BR initially in the blue and grey livery before transitioning to the InterCity livery in line with the rest of the class as BR high speed services forged an identity of its own.

Selected for life-extending refurbishment during the 1970s, the entire fleet was refurbished with new interiors and returned to traffic.
