LMS coaches recommendation

All my previous layouts have been industrial with no passenger facilities. However, my latest is going to have a small branch station on it. So I am looking for 2-3 maroon LMS coaches to be pulled by my existing Fowler 264T. There seems to be a wide choice of 57' coaches from Mainline, Airfix, Dapol et al available on line, but which is best?

I am quite a fan of Mainline wagons, but have no experience of their coaches.

Well I have decided to buy a couple of Mainline 1st/3rd class coaches from a well known online auction site. The should do to be going on with. I haven't actually got my track fully down yet, but I need the coaches to help work out platform lengths, passing loops etc.
