British Rail Trojan Pencil case

Our iconic Trojan moquette pencil case will remind you of train trips to your auntie’s house by the seaside. It was introduced on British Rail’s Kent lines from 1958 and was still used until the 1980s, so it’s earned its place in the moquette hall of fame. Nearly every Mark 1 carriage ever built for British Rail carried the Trojan moquette in its Second (or Standard) Class sections. Red, black, blue, white and yellow lines on a grey background give huge scope to fit the colour scheme of your home, but it’s the nostalgia this moquette conjures up that’s perhaps the most powerful thing about it. If you know Trojan, you probably love it. And if you don’t, why not? It’s a piece of design and textile history.

Ideal for kids, big and small, our pencil cases are robust and stylish, with a high quality zip and endless smiles guaranteed. Dimensions: 20cm x 10cm, with plenty of room for a small ruler, your favourite pens and a protractor - because no pencil case is complete without one. Relive your journey to school every day with one of our stationery holsters!
