Leyland Bus constructed the Class 155 DMUs at its Workington factory between 1987 and 1988. After this class entered service, there was a requirement to replace ageing railcars on rural lines. It was decided that the Class 155 units would be converted to a new class, the 153, which was completed by Hunslet-Barclay at Kilmarnock between 1991 and 1992. They produced 70 units in total. Powered by a 285hp Cummins NT855-R5 Diesel, working through a Voith Hydraulic transmission, the maximum speed of a Class 153 is 75mph, making it perfectly suited for small cross-country services.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur replication of No. 153361 sports the iconic FGW Blue ‘Local Lines’ livery, reminiscent of the prototypical units. This model is DCC-ready and is compatible with our HM7000 21-Pin decoder. The accessory bag will contain two NEM hook couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56772875977088,"sku":"HOR-R30357-PO","price":109.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/IMG_6190_73c665b5-3481-40fe-95e8-265d4b770314.jpg?v=1761580392","url":"https:\/\/railsofsheffield.com\/products\/hornby-r30357-po-pre-owned-class-153-fgw-no-153361-diesel-locomotive","provider":"Rails of Sheffield","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
