This was an effort to build a model of a first class coach (with a coupe assembly). The coach has the coupe's built inside (if you look closely inside the windows). I liked the native brown livery that exisited in old times and hence used the same on this one. There was an effort to simulate the under-carriage and the brake assembly too. However, I did not have a lot of resources at hand back then and hence used what was available readily (major being: hard cardboard). My home (Mumai, India), June 1997-05. By Nikhil Ganu.

Considering the resources used, you have done an excellent job! They definitely look very authentic in their typical IR liveries, shape (even the brake shoes) and also look very proportionate. Good show!
