Title: farish mk3 sleeper
Post by: darren.c on December 22, 2014, 12:32:04 PM
Hi everyone
just a quick question does  anyone know if the roofs on the farish mk3 sleepers are the same as tso/ fo coaches
Looking at doing a sleeper set and normal mk3 are cheaper for striping down
regards daz

The Farish Mk3s all have the same roofs, apart from the buffet car.

Yes, so long as you do not select any of the early Blue / Grey livery Farish Mark 3 TS / TF / SLEP
Furthermore if you use any of the early InterCity Executive livery they are easier to remove the paint from
It is the rooves on the Mark 3 coach representation of the Mark 3A TSO / FO (and some Mark 3 TS / TF) that is incorrect
Ironically, you can also revinyl the Farish Mark 3 sleepers as well
