Product Description

‘O’ gauge diesels don’t get much smaller than this! It’s time to welcome our new 1:43.5 scale starter locomotive – the classic Ruston & Hornsby 48DS industrial shunter.

Designed from scratch using original research and drawings provided by Ruston 48DS owners and experts, this superb new entry-level model is a ‘must have’ for modellers of the industrial scene but will also be suitable for BR era main line layouts and preservation sites, where many of the survivors now reside.

Authentic detail variations include original open style cab and the later enclosed design, standard or deep bufferbeams and optional lifting rings for the sides of the underframe.

 

Standard features include…

  • Separately switchable headlamps
  • A fully detailed cab interior
  • Next18 DCC decoder interface
  • Factory-fitted speaker in the radiator section
  • Compact 5-pole motor with flywheel and super-low gearing for the ultimate in slow speed shunting control
  • Authentic cab and bufferbeam variations
  • Wire Handrails
  • Finely detailed chassis with chain drive and brake gear
  • Wire mesh radiator grille
