NEW TOOL BACHMANN OO GAUGE MLA ENGINEERING WAGONS

Bachmann has also unveiled an all-new OO Gauge tooling in the form of the MLA Bogie Engineers Wagon, bringing this distinctive modern engineering vehicle to ready-to-run form for the very first time. Introduced from 2006, these wagons were initially operated by GBRf and EWS on infrastructure and engineering trains before becoming a familiar sight across the wider network in later years.


They're the perfect companion to Bachmann's excellent Class 66 diesel locomotives already available in stock, allowing you to create authentic modern engineers' trains straight from the box. If you're modelling the contemporary railway scene, this is an exciting new addition that opens up even more realistic train formations.


Single Wagons: £39.90 each

NEW TOOL GRAHAM FARISH N GAUGE 24.5 TON HOPPER WAGONS

Also making its debut in N Gauge is Graham Farish's brand-new 24.5 Ton Steel Hopper Wagon, faithfully recreating one of British Rail's most common and versatile mineral wagons.


A familiar sight on freight trains across the country for many years, these new-tool wagons are available in a selection of BR grey liveries, including both pristine and factory-weathered finishes. Ideal for building realistic block mineral trains or adding variety to mixed freight formations, they're a welcome addition to the N Gauge freight scene and are sure to become a staple of many BR-era layouts.


Single Wagons from £19.50 each

NEW BATCH BACHMANN OO9 NARROW GAUGE 'QUARRY HUNSLET' STEAM LOCOS

Fans of OO9 Narrow Gauge will be delighted to see the welcome return of Bachmann's popular Quarry Hunslet locomotives, with a new batch announced featuring ' Margaret' and ' Una'. Both models benefit from accurate tooling variations to faithfully capture the unique characteristics of their real-life counterparts, continuing Bachmann's commitment to producing highly authentic narrow gauge models.


Demand for these charming locomotives remains exceptionally strong - we still have availability of the two previously announced re-run models, but they have now sold out completely at Bachmann. With no opportunity for us to obtain additional stock once our allocation is gone, pre-ordering is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.


DCC Ready: from £127.45 each

NEW BATCH GRAHAM FARISH N GAUGE BR STANDARD 4MT STEAM LOCOS
