@martyn @03piggs i believe the Minitrix numbers for the teak LNER coaches are 13013 & 13014
A jack of all trades is a master of none, but often times better than a master of one.

The post from @martyn  above re Gresley coaches is correct.

Minitrix produced the following Gresley coach models: 

13013 Brake Composite     LNER Teak running no. 4173 (introduced in 1988)
13014 Corridor Third         LNER Teak running no. 4237 (introduced in 1988)
13115 BCK                       BR Maroon running no. E10076E BR Maroon (introduced in 1991)
13116 TK/SK                    BR Maroon running no. E12451E BR Maroon (introduced in 1991)

In June 1956, third class accommodation in coaching stock was re-designated as second class by BR so the TKs became SKs.
 
The Minitrix Teak versions are more common and appear on eBay fairly frequently whereas the maroon Gresley coaches are much rarer.  The coaches are marked "Trix Germany"

Here is a photo of my two maroon Gresley coaches in their original packaging.
