Back by popular demand is an O Gauge Train Set in British outline at a great value price.
Featuring handpicked O Gauge components from British companies Dapol, Peco and ourselves here at Gaugemaster, we've put together an ideal starter set which doubles as a model railway project layout in a box. With an end to end design, this is a layout that can find a home anywhere and is the ideal basis for a small shunting layout. We've deliberately not included any rolling stock, leaving you free to select your own wagons or coaches from the extensive Dapol or Heljan ranges.
The motive power is provided by a heavily weathered Class 09 in dirty BR Blue
The British Rail Class 09 is a class of 0-6-0 diesel locomotive designed primarily for shunting and also short distance freight trips along branch lines. The 26 locos are similar to the Class 08 shunting locomotives but have different gearing, giving a top speed of 27.5 mph (44 km/h) at the expense of a lower tractive effort. They were introduced from 1959 to 1962 and latterly operated in the Southern Region of British Railways, although some of the class were originally allocated to depots in the Midlands and North before transferring south. Further locomotives were converted from Class 08 in 1992 and, following this and privatisation in 1997, the class has been distributed much further afield.
This stunning replica of the Class 09 diesel shunter is the ideal addition to any O Gauge layout from late steam era to modern. It features lots of fine details which including sprung buffers, three link couplings and separately added detail parts. There are electrical pick-ups on all six wheels and having a chassis made of tungsten means it is a very reliable model to run on your model railway. A powerful five pole motor drives the six wheels which have been fitted with a rotating coupling rod to add to the detail. The finely applied paint scheme really makes the model stand out and ensures it is a must have for the model railway.
