We consider a two-type reducible branching Brownian motion, defined as a particle system on the real line in which particles of two types move according to independent Brownian motion and create offspring at constant rate. Particles of type $1$ can give birth to particles of types $1$ and $2$, but particles of type $2$ only give birth to descendants of type $2$. Under some specific conditions, Biggins (2012) shows that this process exhibit an anomalous spreading behaviour: the rightmost particle at time $t$ is much further than the expected position for the rightmost particle in a branching Brownian motion consisting only of particles of type $1$ or of type $2$. This anomalous spreading also has been investigated from a reaction-diffusion equation standpoint by Holzer (2014,2016). The aim of this article is to study the asymptotic behaviour of the position of the furthest particles in the two-type reducible branching Brownian motion, obtaining in particular tight estimates for the median of the maximal displacement.
