The order book is closing soon for Rapido Trains UK's second batch of Evolution Bogie Coaches in OO Gauge! There's a huge selection of liveries to choose from in this second batch catering for all sorts of pre-grouping, Big Four and other variations too.
The deadline for Batch 1 has already passed and these have proven super popular already - with some variations close to selling out. Once the order deadline passes, our final order is placed and stocks will be limited - so we always recommend placing a pre-order to ensure yours is confirmed. Don't forget - we only take payment when the items arrive into stock!
PLACE YOUR ORDERS FOR BATCH 2 BY: MONDAY 3RD NOVEMBER 2025
CHECK OUT ALL BATCH 2 LIVERIES
There are a staggering number of coaches available to pre-order in Batch 2 catering for railways that have been under-represented (or NEVER represented properly) in OO Gauge RTR!
Batch 2 is expected to arrive during Mid-2026 (Subject to change)
The gorgeous range of North British Railway crimson liveried coaches are only available to buy here at Rails of Sheffield - offering you the opportunity to get RTR coaches from this railway for the first time ever. These will be perfect to pair with our upcoming Class D34 'Glen' 4-4-0 steam locomotive from Sonic Models too! Learn more in our video below.
The order book deadline has now closed for these models but we have limited quantities remaining to order here at Rails! Pretty much all of them are now fully sold out at Rapido - so place your orders ASAP to avoid missing out.
Batch 1 is expected to arrive between Late 2025 and Early 2026. (Subject to change)
2026 is set to be the YEAR OF EVOLUTION, with even more liveries expected to arrive later in the year as part of Batch 3 - catering for even more classic UK railway companies that finally have their chance in the spotlight.
Batch 3 is expected to arrive during Late 2026 (Subject to change)
