The Class 122 is a masterpiece of early diesel-era efficiency. Designed to keep rural branch lines alive, these double-ended "Bubble Cars" provided a complete train service in a single vehicle. With their high-set driving cabs and expansive windows, they offered passengers a panoramic view of the British countryside. Our model captures the lightweight, airy feel of these 1950s pioneers, making it the perfect centerpiece for any small-scale terminus.

Modeling a single-car unit requires absolute attention to interior and exterior harmony. Our Class 122 features a fully detailed passenger saloon and driver’s cabs, visible through flush-fitting glazing. Beneath the floor, we have recreated the twin-engine drive and complex vacuum brake gear that allowed these units to work solo or haul a trailing parcels van. It is a compact, highly detailed solution for layouts where space is at a premium.
