Description
The final set for the Class 414s, but not the last EMU, far from it, I still have to post the 415/416 EPBs used on the eastern and central sections for commuter services and eventually some expresses. Not to mention the lovely Motor Luggage Vans.The name HAP followed on from the 2 HAL Half-A-Lavatory units:
HAP denoting Half-A-(lavatory) (electro) Pneumatic.
Latterly the first-class accommodation in the 2 HAP units was downgraded to second-class to form the 2 SAP (TOPS 418) units:
SAP denoting Second class (half)-A-(lavatory) (electro) Pneumatic.
From April /May 1982 pairs of 2 HAP units were permanently coupled together for use on the Coastway Services out of Brighton. These became 4 CAP (TOPS 413) units:
CAP denoting Coastway (half)-A-(lavatory) (electro) Pneumatic.
They were normally coupled DMBSO to DMBSO.
The first phase and it's two batches were built atop of frames donated from Southern 2-NOLs, however, I have only modeled here, the second phase batches built atop frames identical to the Mk1s. As these were designed for express services, they were built with with a DMBSO/DMTC configuration.
Included are:
DMBSO
DMTC
Yellow Ends to slap a face on and with matching pipework.
