After Richard Maunsell took the reigns from Harry Wainwright in 1913 he worked on a series of new locomotives which were intended for a long service life, this involved the conversion and upgrade of 11 E class locomotives, resulting in the E1 class. This proved very successful and led directly to the conversion of 21 D class into the D1 class between 1921 and 1927. Though arguably, not as elegant as the D class equipped with a larger boiler, a belpaire firebox and longer travel cylinders the D1 was able to produce a considerable haulage and power increase over its predecessors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInitially allocated to Ashford shed, this class was to be found all over the south-eastern division from London to the south.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWithdrawn in November 1961, no preserved examples exist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTechnical Specification\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Diecast Chassis\u003cbr\u003e• Low centre of gravity located between the driving wheels\u003cbr\u003e• NEM couplings with removable coupling pocket\u003cbr\u003e• Sprung buffers\u003cbr\u003e• R2 (438mm\/17.2”) minimum radius\u003cbr\u003e• Pickup from tender and driving wheels\u003cbr\u003e• Powerful 5 pole motor located within boiler\u003cbr\u003e• \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePull Out PCB for a tool-free DCC \u0026amp; Speaker fitting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• ‘Snap-fit’ conductive tender drawbar\u003cbr\u003e• Options for bass reflex speaker in tender (pre-wired)\u003cbr\u003e• Firebox glow\u003cbr\u003e• Profiled wheels\u003cbr\u003e• Detailed motion\u003cbr\u003e• Removable coal load with internal tender profiling\u003cbr\u003e• Fully detailed back-head and cab interior.\u003cbr\u003e• Back by Dapol’s comprehensive warranty and service\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eVariations (dependent on model represented)\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Two frame variations (to include early D class conversions)\u003cbr\u003e• Two cab types\u003cbr\u003e• Two Chimney types\u003cbr\u003e• Two Smokebox types\u003cbr\u003e• Three dome types (with\/without top feed and plated)\u003cbr\u003e• Two safety valve types (Ross-pop and Ramsbottom)\u003cbr\u003e• With and without snifter valves\u003cbr\u003e• ‘High capacity’ tenders\u003cbr\u003e• Manual and automatic lubricators\u003cbr\u003e• Additional minor detail variations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dapol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41337874940095,"sku":"DAP-4S-028-006S","price":324.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_2915_072906d1-089b-449f-9be9-95cb509b538d.jpg?v=1686927944"},{"product_id":"highland-railway-jones-goods-4-6-0-br-lined-black-no-57925-dcc-sound","title":"914507 Highland Railway Jones Goods 4-6-0 BR Lined Black No. 57925 - DCC Sound","description":"\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContinuing our ‘What If’ theme – British Railways inherited 33 ex-Highland Railway locomotives but the ‘Big Goods’ were not among them (aside from preserved pioneer No. 103).

HISTORY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFifty Class 90 locomotives were ordered by British Rail in 1986 to replace the ageing Class 85 fleet on West Coast Main Line duties, whilst also allowing BR to cascade a number of Class 86s to East Anglia. Constructed at British Rail Engineering Limited, Crewe, the new locomotives were initially classified as 87\/2s however this was soon changed to Class 90 as the design featured a completely new body-shell – although much of the technology within was shared with the Class 87s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction of the 110mph rated locomotives was completed in 1990 and the fleet was split between different sectors of British Rail – 15 were allocated to InterCity services, five for Rail Express Systems (mail and parcels traffic) and the remaining 30 for Railfreight Distribution. Most of those allocated to Railfreight Distribution would later be downgraded to 75mph and reclassified as 90\/1s numbered in the 901xx series following work to isolate the Electric Train Heating and push-pull equipment making them dedicated freight locos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpon privatisation the Class 90 fleet was split between Virgin Trains, EWS and Freightliner. By 1999 all of the Class 90\/1s acquired by EWS had been converted back to 90\/0s due to an increased requirement for passenger locomotives to work contracted ScotRail sleeper trains and for hire to GNER for East Coast Main Line services. Further renumbering by EWS occurred when nine locos were fitted with different brake blocks and these became Class 90\/2s numbered in the 902xx series. The Freightliner locos were also converted back to their original specification in the early 2000s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Class 90s have carried numerous liveries including three decorated in European liveries for the Freightconnection event in 1992 which coincided with the opening of the Channel Tunnel to freight services. No. 90128 was decorated in SNCB turquoise (Belgium), No. 90129 in DB red (Germany) and No. 90130 in SNCF orange and grey (France) and each carried the name Freightconnection in their respective languages, alongside No. 90022 which was named ‘Freightconnection’ and carried Railfreight Distribution livery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe majority of the Class have carried names whilst in service and the 90s have appeared a variety of other post-Privatisation liveries such as GNER, DB Schenker, First ScotRail, One (Anglia), Greater Anglia, National Express, DRS and Malcolm Logistics. Today, Class 90s remain in operation with Freightliner, DB Cargo UK (ex-EWS\/DB Schenker) and most recently Locomotive Services which has acquired Nos. 90001 and 90002 and repainted them into InterCity Swallow livery for use on charters and excursions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41843478921407,"sku":"GF-371-783SF","price":159.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/products\/MG_4838.jpg?v=1671551524"},{"product_id":"rapido-trains-uk-932007-lner-y7-no-1302-lner-livery-steam-locomotive","title":"932007 LNER Y7 - No.1302 LNER Livery Steam Locomotive","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRapido Trains UK has added one of the LNER’s smallest steam locomotive to its range - the Worsdell ‘Y7’ 0-4-0T.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOf all the LNER locomotives we could have added to our range, we have gone for one of the smallest.

British Rail awarded the contract to design and build these new engines to Brush Traction in Loughborough, who subsequently sub-contracted the construction to Electroputere in Romania, due to the lack of capacity in their own works. The initial 30 locomotives to be delivered from Romania suffered from transit damage and construction deficiencies and had to be extensively rebuilt before entering service. With this in mind the decision was made to build the remaining 105 locomotives in England, British Rail Engineering Ltd manufacturing them at their Doncaster Works (nos. 56031 to 56115) and Crewe Works (nos. 56116 to 56135).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design specification was based upon the Class 47 bodyshell, with the omission of redundant features such as the headcode panel. Power came from a Ruston-Paxman unit that was similar to that fitted in the Class 50 locomotives, which provided the capability for heavy haul freight. Air brakes were fitted for the first time in a British Rail engine and the electrics were improved in a number of areas, resulting in a more robust power unit. Nicknamed as Gridirons or \"Grids\", the Class 56 displaced the Class 20 and Class 47 locomotives and commonly undertook the transportation of iron ore, coal, aggregate and steel across the Eastern and London Midland Regions and on the Western Region for aggregate duties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrong and reliable performers, the locomotives were popular, but needed heavy maintenance, particularly when compared against the Class 66 locomotives that came to displace them in service. The introduction of the Class 60 locomotives saw a gradual reduction in the use of the Class 56 locomotives and with the arrival of the Class 66 locomotives, with their greater availability and lower maintenance, the Class 56 fleet were placed into storage between 1998 and 2004.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the locomotives remain in depots around the UK, despite being variously sold for scrap and then re-acquired and reinstated in service. Colas Railfreight operate a small fleet on a rotating basis and British American Railway Services and UK Rail Leasing have a number available for working. Five locomotives, 56006, 56097, 56098, 56301 and 56302 have been preserved. No. 56047 was built in July 1978 by BREL in Doncaster.

It was intended that trains of these wagons could run in a continuous loop from the colliery to the power station and back, with machinery I place to allow loading and unloading at slow speeds. In reality it was often the case that the infrastructure to allow this type of running did not exist, particularly at the collieries, but nonetheless these wagons greatly improved coal transfer. With the decline of Britain's coal industry these previously extremely common wagons have now become extremely rare with most having been either scrapped or rebuilt as another form of wagon. Based upon the successful HAA wagon, the HFA design added an aerodynamic canopy designed to stop coal-dust from escaping.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eItem Length - \u003c\/span\u003e4.5cm, Width - 9cm, Height - 15.6cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1:76 Scale 00 Gauge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainted Finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eMinimum Curve (mm): \u003c\/span\u003eRadius 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42498092695743,"sku":"HOR-R60068","price":24.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_8039_4540a2ac-10a8-4ca6-b2a6-bb06ba1d069e.jpg?v=1698743536"},{"product_id":"highland-railways-jones-goods-4-6-0-steam-locomotive-no-109-hr-drummond-green-ii-dcc-sound","title":"Highland Railways Jones Goods 4-6-0 Steam Locomotive No.109, HR Drummond Green II (DCC Sound)","description":"\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/Railway_Icons_Logo_GOLD_1COL.png?v=1687776740\" width=\"200\" height=\"156\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/Railway_Icons_Logo_GOLD_1COL.png?v=1687776740\" data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExclusive to Rails of Sheffield and Locomotion Models.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe are delighted to offer this exclusive \u003cstrong\u003eHR Drummond Green II\u003c\/strong\u003e version as part of our Railway Icons range.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExclusive model features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHighland Railway ‘Jones Goods’ 4-6-0\u003cbr\u003eNo.109\u003cbr\u003eBuilt 1894 by Sharp, Stewart \u0026amp; Co.\u003cbr\u003eWorks No.4028\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePlain Green livery (1916-1923 condition)\u003cbr\u003eCumming Number Plate\u003cbr\u003eH.R on tender\u003cbr\u003eNumber on bufferbeam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLouvred chimney (large cap)\u003cbr\u003eSafety valve lock-ups\u003cbr\u003eTablet catcher\u003cbr\u003eTender doors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlthough they’re often called ‘Jones Goods’ after Highland Chief Engineer David Jones, it was his Chief Draughtsman, David Anderson Hendrie, who proposed that the railway could benefit from the 4-6-0 wheel arrangement that was becoming common in other countries.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe result was the first 4-6-0 design to run in Britain.

Electric Locomotive No. CC1 in SR Grey livery as part of the EFE Rail OO scale range. Conceived in the late-1930s to take advantage of the Southern’s expansive electrified network, two of these Co-Co locomotives were built, gaining the nickname the ‘Boosters’ due to their motor-generator-flywheel drive arrangement employed to overcome ‘gapping’, when the locomotive could momentarily loose its electrical supply when travelling over gaps in the conductor rail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced especially for the EFE Rail range, this all-new model features a wealth of detail with a varied tooling suite allowing the first two locomotives, CC1 and CC2, to be modelled accurately at various points in their careers.

Electric Multiple Units were principally employed on these electric routes, but as the system expanded beyond the suburbs, the Southern’s Chief Mechanical Engineer Oliver Bulleid and Chief Electric Engineer Alfred Raworth recognised the potential of electricity to power locomotives that could haul coaching stock and freight too. And so, the pair designed a Co-Co electric locomotive, the first of which was built in 1941. The design of the two cabs shared many features with EMUs of the time, whilst between them, within the body of the locomotive, could be found the electrical equipment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a much shorter distance between their front and rear pickups, when compared to a multiple unit, locomotives could be prone to losing electrical pickup if any gap in the conductor rail was greater than the distance between the pickups – known as ‘gapping’. To overcome this, two motor generator sets and flywheels were included in the design with the power collected from the third rail used to drive the generators, fitted with heavy flywheels, which then powered the motors. Thus, power to the traction motors would be maintained by the motor generator sets being driven by the flywheel when the traction supply was briefly lost in the event of ‘gapping’. These motor-generator-flywheel sets were referred to as ‘Boosters’, giving the type its nickname. Pantographs were also fitted for overhead pickup in sidings and depots where a conductor rail presented danger to staff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first locomotive, No. CC1 (renumbered to No. 20001 by BR) was outshopped by Ashford Works in 1941. Carrying Photographic Grey livery, three horizontal stripes were applied to the bodysides, culminating at the cab end in what we would now call speed whiskers. Being wartime, the cab windows had metal plates added to the top and bottom to reduce the aperture. Next, No. CC1 carried Malachite Green livery with ‘Sunshine’ Southern lettering and yellow lines at solebar and cantrail level. The second locomotive, No. CC2 (BR No. 20002) was built in 1945 and emerged in the same livery. Both were used on express passenger and goods trains.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePassing into BR ownership in 1948, the pair continued in use, with various modifications over the years. A third locomotive, No. 20003 was completed by BR in 1948 however its appearance differed somewhat, having a cab design based on that of more contemporary EMUs with a slab front. Whilst successful locomotives, being a class of three non-standard types, the ‘Boosters’ eventually succumbed to withdrawal with No. 20003 the first to go in October 1968. No. 20002 was withdrawn in December 1968 and No. 20001 survived until January 1969, having been decorated earlier in BR Blue livery with full yellow ends. The trio were classified as Class 70 under the Total Operations Processing System (TOPS), however their withdrawal by 1969, and subsequent scrapping, prevented any of the locomotives from carrying TOPS numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EFE Rail","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42587510997183,"sku":"EFR-E82001","price":89.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_4546_4e4921f2-374c-40e0-b7a5-c2c6213d500f.jpg?v=1704363771"},{"product_id":"iron-mink-gw-at-war-pack-b-triple-pack","title":"961004 Iron Mink - GW at War Pack B Triple Pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eRapido Trains UK is proud to announce brand-new N Gauge Iron Minks and Not-Quite-Minks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur range of Iron Minks was an absolute blast in OO and loads of you have asked us to shrink them down to N Gauge. We have been mulling it over, and we think that now is a good time to follow up on the popularity of the recently released Not-Quite-minks, and iron out the designs for our N Gauge fans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Great Western Railway’s V6 ‘Iron Mink’ is one of the most recognisable designs that came out of the Swindon wagon drawing office. What made these wagons so recognisable was the fact that they shunned traditional wooden construction and were made from metal instead. Shortages of timber forced the GWR to investigate building vans from metal but it wasn’t until 1888 that what could be called the ‘Standard Iron Mink’ appeared. This boasted a 16ft 6in underframe and a capacity of 8 tons. Over 4,000 were built up to 1901 when the GWR reverted to wood bodies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith war looming, the ‘Iron Mink’s’ metal construction made it an ideal gunpowder van. Wooden doors were replaced with thick metal ones and the end ventilators were covered with a plain panel. After the First World War, these ‘Iron Minks’ were converted back to goods traffic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ‘Iron Minks’ were long lived with examples surviving through until British Railways days in revenue and Departmental service. They could be found all over the UK railway network and some were recorded as far north as Inverness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThough the GWR pioneered the ‘Iron Mink’, the basic design was adopted by not only private wagon builders but other railway companies. Other railways and builders would use what was essentially the ‘Iron Mink’ body but use underframes and fittings to their own design. Whilst not quite right we thought we would offer ready-to-run ‘Not-Quite-Minks’ that represent railway companies and private owner organisations where the pickings of RTR models are quite slim – we trust that modellers will overlook any slight prototypical inaccuracies in order to enjoy highly authentic and well-researched liveries on a beautiful looking and refined model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmongst the range is a nice selection of tooling variants to cover some of the different guises the ‘Iron Mink’ had throughout its existence.

We love steam locos at Rapido, and most of them follow similar design principles. The Andrew Barclay 0-4-0 Fireless well and truly takes the design rulebook and throws it out of the window. We are very proud to bring you the first ever ready-to-run OO Gauge British Fireless locomotive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the railways established themselves as a reliable method to transport goods, one problem came to the fore – fire. Steam locos fundamentally need a heat source created from some form of fire to turn water into steam. However, this fire (alongside sparks emitted from the chimney) caused great concern in environments where munitions, fuel or other flammable materials were being moved or stored. The solution to the frustratingly flammable freight is a locomotive that won't spark or have a naked flame on board. In more recent years the the answer would be simple - utilise a flameproof diesel or electric-powered loco. However, at the turn of the last century these types of locomotives were just glints in the eyes of railway operators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThankfully, some bright spark had the clever idea of harnessing steam power in a large rechargeable steam reservoir, which would sit in place of the boiler of a conventional steam locomotive. This reservoir would be filled with a mix of boiling water and steam at high pressure. As the locomotive worked, the steam would be used and thus the pressure in the reservoir would drop. This in turn allowed the water to start to boil, replacing the steam that had been used. With this method, a locomotive could work for about 4 hours before recharging. The result is a design that has a distinct lack of key features which people associate with more traditional steam locomotives, such as a smokebox and chimney, a firebox, forward-mounted cylinders and coal bunkers or tenders. Its lack of a firebox requires the cylinders to be rear-mounted both to improve efficiency and redistribute the weight of the loco. The other features are missing simply because they are surplus to requirements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you love or loathe its functional and raw design, you would be hardpressed to argue that the Fireless didn’t push the boundaries of railway design. Engineered to be simple and rugged, they could run anywhere there was an existing steam supply and allowed single-man working. They were also very cheap to maintain. The Fireless was a true pioneer of rechargeable transportation. The largest number of British-built Fireless locomotives was constructed by Andrew Barclay \u0026amp; Co. Ltd.: an impressive 114 were built between 1913 and 1961 of varying designs. It was only fitting that we pick the most numerous of Barclay’s prototypes, the ‘Caledonia’, to produce as the very first ready-to-run OO Gauge British Fireless loco.\u003cbr\u003eThese industrial oddities survived far longer than most British Railways and industrial coal-fired steam locos with many examples working into the 1980s and even into the 1990s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe wanted to represent locos from the 1920s right through to the present day, so we have given a choice of a variety of liveries covering the loco's lengthy history, including two generic variants which represent a typical early and late style ‘Caledonia’ ideal for any industrial layout! We’ve even included a very long-lived loco (Croda Chemical Works) believed to be one of the last working Fireless locomotives in the UK, and potentially the last steam locomotive in regular industrial use across the nation.

11th January 2019 at the National Railway Museum in York. A special train conveying guests was hauled nonstop from Kings Cross by ‘Flying Scotsman’ and returned to London behind the newly named electric locomotive. Both locomotives posed for photographs outside the museum as a tribute to a remarkable man, Sir William McAlpine, who was a lifelong railway enthusiast and sadly passed away on 4th March 2018. Sir William had joined the family construction company straight from school, eventually becoming the Director responsible for its operations in Scotland. In 1961 he bought, for himself, the company’s last steam locomotive for £100 and built a railway for it to run on at his Buckinghamshire home. Then in 1973, he rescued ‘Flying Scotsman’ from the USA purchasing it from the receivers after a failed tour, retaining ownership until 1996. Sir William became involved in railway preservation and was the first Chairman of the Railway Heritage Trust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppearing in the much-requested red livery of DB Cargo for the first time, the Bachmann Branchline Class 90 is the pinnacle in British OO scale Electric locomotives. Combining a highly accurate and detailed body shell with an authentic chassis and bogies – each featuring a wealth of separately fitted detail – the Branchline Class 90 captures the distinctive shape and character of the real locomotives to a tee. Add to this the multiple lighting functions and their realistic operations, such as the Day or Night mode for the directional lighting and the cab lights that illuminate only in the direction of travel and when the model is stationary, and its easy to see why this model is the complete package. What’s more, when used on DCC the Pantograph, which itself is a fine reproduction featuring metal components, can be operated remotely via the built-in servo motor, meaning you can raise and lower this characteristic feature at any time, without having to intervene by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBachmann Branchline OO Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePristine DB Cargo livery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning No. 90028\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEtched Nameplates included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength 250mm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAIL VARIATIONS SPECIFIC TO THIS MODEL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRectangular Freight Buffers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew link Couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTDM Cables fitted to the Buffer Sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Slatted Horn Grille with Two Horns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall Battery Charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery Boxes and Switch with Hinged Access panels which are Ribbed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMECHANISM:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive pole, twin shaft motor with two flywheels providing drive to both bogies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll axle drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical pickup from all wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate metal bearings fitted to each axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiecast metal chassis block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGearing arranged for prototypical running speeds and haulage capabilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16.5mm (OO gauge) wheels to NEM310 \u0026amp; NEM311 standards with authentic profile and detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose coupling mechanism fitted at each end, each of which is fitted with coupling pockets to NEM362 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to operate on curves of second radius (438mm) or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILING:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Pantograph, sprung for posing in the up or down position, or can be raised\/lowered via the built-in servo motor when operated on DCC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBogies constructed from multiple components featuring full relief detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately applied metal detail parts, including horn grilles, roof grilles, lamp irons and aerials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSprung buffers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach model supplied with a full set of decorated, model-specific bufferbeam pipework and accessory parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLIGHTING:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional lighting, switchable on\/off at either end on DCC or Analogue control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDay\/Night Mode, selectable on DCC or Analogue control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional lights and Day\/Night Mode selection is controlled via easy-access switches on the roof when operated on Analogue control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCab lighting, switchable on\/off (at the leading end, when used on DCC only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic light colours and temperatures selected for each model based on era and application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDCC:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21 Pin DCC decoder interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy-access DCC decoder socket located underneath removable roof panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLIVERY APPLICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic liveries applied to all models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple paint applications employed on each model using BR\/TOC specification colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLogos, numerals and text added as appropriate using multi-stage tampo printing using authentic typefaces, logos and colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCLASS 90 HISTORY \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFifty Class 90 locomotives were ordered by British Rail in 1986 to replace the ageing Class 85 fleet on West Coast Main Line duties, whilst also allowing BR to cascade a number of Class 86s to East Anglia. Constructed at British Rail Engineering Limited, Crewe, the new locomotives were initially classified as 87\/2s however this was soon changed to Class 90 as the design featured a completely new body-shell – although much of the technology within was shared with the Class 87s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction of the 110mph rated locomotives was completed in 1990 and the fleet was split between different sectors of British Rail – 15 were allocated to InterCity services, five for Rail Express Systems (mail and parcels traffic) and the remaining 30 for Railfreight Distribution. Most of those allocated to Railfreight Distribution would later be downgraded to 75mph and reclassified as 90\/1s numbered in the 901xx series following work to isolate the Electric Train Heating and push-pull equipment making them dedicated freight locos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpon privatisation the Class 90 fleet was split between Virgin Trains, EWS and Freightliner. By 1999 all of the Class 90\/1s acquired by EWS had been converted back to 90\/0s due to an increased requirement for passenger locomotives to work contracted ScotRail sleeper trains and for hire to GNER for East Coast Main Line services. Further renumbering by EWS occurred when nine locos were fitted with different brake blocks and these became Class 90\/2s numbered in the 902xx series. The Freightliner locos were also converted back to their original specification in the early 2000s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Class 90s have carried numerous liveries including three decorated in European liveries for the Freightconnection event in 1992 which coincided with the opening of the Channel Tunnel to freight services. No. 90128 was decorated in SNCB turquoise (Belgium), No. 90129 in DB red (Germany) and No. 90130 in SNCF orange and grey (France) and each carried the name Freightconnection in their respective languages, alongside No. 90022 which was named ‘Freightconnection’ and carried Railfreight Distribution livery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe majority of the Class have carried names whilst in service and the 90s have appeared a variety of other post-Privatisation liveries such as GNER, DB Schenker, First ScotRail, One (Anglia), Greater Anglia, National Express, DRS and Malcolm Logistics. Today, Class 90s remain in operation with Freightliner, DB Cargo UK (ex-EWS\/DB Schenker) and most recently Locomotive Services which has acquired Nos. 90001 and 90002 and repainted them into InterCity Swallow livery for use on charters and excursions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42863921987775,"sku":"BAC-32-616NRM","price":164.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_0759_b2c91e40-eb35-4c72-8cc7-22e4378a6e4c.jpg?v=1708767438"},{"product_id":"gaugemaster-collection-gm4410213-7-plank-wagon-gaugemaster-50th-anniversary-edition","title":"GM4410213 7 Plank Wagon Gaugemaster 50th Anniversary Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eHelp celebrate 50 years of business of Gaugemaster Controls with this specially commissioned wagon, The livery has been designed by our team here at GM and includes the running number 50 and the destination of Ford.

The elegant appearance of the T3 carried many hallmarks of a locomotive designed by William Adams, with long frames extending beyond the smokebox and stovepipe chimneys. Intended for use on the undulating lines west of Salisbury, they worked from depots on the Bournemouth line as well as the West of England line. Whilst in service several changes and modifications were made to the locomotives including the replacement of the original equalising beam suspension with traditional springing. In addition, once Dugald Drummond took post as the LSWR’s Chief Mechanical Engineer he began to change the stovepipe chimney to one of his own design whilst some examples also received Drummond boilers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll twenty locomotives were inherited by the Southern Railway (SR) at Grouping in 1923, however with the SR being an early adopter of electrification there soon became a locomotive surplus and within ten years, all but three T3s had been withdrawn. The final three were withdrawn in 1936, 1942 and 1945 – the last being No. 563 which was then stored before appearing at the centenary of Waterloo Station in 1948. No. 563 would go on to be saved as part of the national collection, appearing at the Museum of British Transport at Clapham and then the National Railway Museum (NRM) at York.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2017, having been loaned for use in theatre productions of The Railway Children in both Canada and London, the NRM transferred ownership of No. 563 to the Swanage Railway Trust 563 Locomotive Group, a move that drew much attention at the time but one that ultimately resulted in the locomotive being restored to full working order.

With a haulage capacity and reliability superior to the Class 31, 37 and 47 locomotives in sector service at the time, Trainload Petroleum, Metals, Construction and Coal were prompted to lobby for a new UK designed locomotive to match it. British Rail Board eventually secured the necessary treasury funding and following a difficult procurement process, the contract was finally awarded to Brush Electrical Machines of Loughborough on May 17, 1988 for 100 locomotives. Brush's design incorporated many features from the Class 59's specification, as well as their own Sepex traction control system, tested on the Class 58, to improve adhesion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Class 60s were geared for a maximum speed of 62 mph, the power units being eight cylinder, 145 litre Blackstone 8MB275T diesel traction engines built by Mirrlees at their Stockport works, delivering a maximum power output of 3,100hp at 1000rpm. The bodyshell, shared with the Class 92 locomotives, was of a monocoque, stressed skin construction with diagonal trusses, the external bodywork providing support for the internal components and all were built by Procor (UK) of Wakefield. The first locomotive was handed over to Railfreight on time, in June 1989, but extensive teething problems (many involving computer software), meant that it took sixteen months before the first of the Class were accepted and nearly four years to introduce all 100 of the Class 60 locomotives to service. By the time the Class 60 fleet entered service, Trainload's Sector businesses had given way to 'shadow' privatisation and the formation, in 1994, of Loadhaul, Transrail and Mainline Freight with the Class 60 fleet split equally between them. English, Welsh and Scottish Railway bought the whole Class 60 fleet as part of British Railway's privatisation, reallocating the entire Class 60 fleet to Toton as a cost cutting measure and to pool common parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 2003\/4, a number of locomotives were stored as surplus to operational requirements. In 2007 EWS became part of DB Schenker and at the end of October 2010, the entire Class 60 fleet was mothballed, with the exception of 60040 The Territorial Army Centenary and 60074 Teenage Cancer Trust. By the end of 2011, two more locomotives were returned to service, followed by an announcement that 21 further Class 60s were to be overhauled in 2012, this being completed by the end of 2013. Since then, the fortunes of the Class 60 Fleet have ebbed and flowed, with locomotives being sold, re-sold and leased, but in 2019 the majority of locomotives are owned by DB Cargo (UK), with Beacon Rail and GBRf also owning vehicles. Of the 100 locomotives in operation, 71 are in storage; DB Cargo (UK) preferring to rotate its operational Class 60s, with around fourteen being in service at any one time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing their acquisition of ten Class 66 locomotives from DB Cargo and a further sixteen Class 56 locomotives, in June 2018 GBRf continued the expansion of their heavy rail fleet by reaching an agreement with Colas Rail to take over the operation of that company's fleet of ten Class 60 units. On 2 October 2019, in partnership with Beacon Rail Leasing, GBRf released the newly named 60026 Helvellyn into traffic wearing Beacon Rail's Royal Blue livery, with GBRf branding. 60026 was named Helvellyn after one of the original Class 44 Peak locomotives and the style of the locomotive's new nameplate reflected that heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56490568417664,"sku":"HOR-R30026","price":179.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_4410_89bfae09-b24b-4229-a1b7-51cde45fc850.jpg?v=1719234408"},{"product_id":"bachman-38-250k-ipa-twin-double-deck-car-transporter-stva-red-weathered-exclusive-edition","title":"38-250K IPA Twin Double Deck Car Transporter 'STVA' Red (Weathered) Exclusive Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnnounced in August 2022 to coincide with Bachmann Europe’s Autumn 2022 British Railway Announcements, we are delighted to present this Bachmann Collectors Club Exclusive Edition OO scale Twin Pack of IPA Double Deck Car Transporter Wagons in weathered STVA Red livery.
