 Over the years I have owned several Triang 00 gauge Blue Pullman trains, but never the Bachmann set.
These have been made up from secondhand units comprising of a motor loco, dummy and single carriage. My last set was in the grey livery.
Prices vary depending on the condition but spare parts can be obtained on eBay including the kitchen car and additional carriages. Interior fittings and lighting.
Different train company liveries can be applied if you desire which would make a change from the blue and white, grey and blue ,,whilst some had the yellow wrap around yellow fronts.
The familiar brown and cream would make an interesting whiff.
Likewise a travelling Post Office or a military train. Even a sleeper service seems plausible.
Could be the basis for an alternative to the Hogwarts Express. As the name plates and decals can also be bought online.
