<p>Railroad: BR Class 37 37501 &#039;Teesside Steelmaster&#039; ROG British Steel Blue (Sound Fitted)
Built by English Electric at its Vulcan Foundry in Lancashire, the locomotive this RailRoad model is based on started life in January 1961 as D6705, going new to Stratford depot in London.&amp;nbsp;
After becoming 37005 under TOPS, it was rebuilt as a Class 37/5 in April 1985, which included replacing its EE generator with a new Brush unit, and a complete re-wire, with a consequent renumbering to 37501. It was then painted into its distinctive British Steel pale blue colour scheme, gaining Thornaby Kingfisher motif and British Steel logos. It was then named &amp;lsquo;Teesside Steelmaster&amp;rsquo; in 1987.&amp;nbsp;
It was later modified for the proposed Channel Tunnel sleeper &amp;lsquo;Nightstar&amp;rsquo; project (which was later aborted) to become a 37/6 in February 1995 and renumbered to 37601. It is currently one of six Class 37s leased by Rail Operations Group from Europhoenix for contracted movement of passenger stock, including EMUs. It was returned to its 1987 guise during a repaint in 2025.&amp;nbsp;
This RailRoad model locomotive is a durable design, perfect for model railway beginners, younger enthusiasts, or anyone who enjoys running their trains daily. Plus, it has been pre-fitted with a DCC sound chip for HM7000 control.

A total of 996 of the diesel electric shunters were built at various BR works between 1952 and 1962. As the standard BR general-purpose diesel shunter, the type became a common sight at major stations and freight yards across the country.&amp;nbsp;
The locomotive this example is based on started life as 13326 in November 1956, having been completed at Darlington, and was new to New England, Peterborough. It later served at Sheffield Darnall, Tinsley, Finsbury Park, Hitchin, Startford and finally, from May 1968 at Colchester, from where it was withdrawn in February 1984. It was cut-up at Doncaster Works by January the following year.&amp;nbsp;
Our RailRoad range is more durable than our standard range, making it perfect for beginners, children, and the most enthusiastic of model railway runners. Plus, it&#039;s been pre-fitted with a DCC sound chip for HM700 control.

<p>BR Class 43 HST Virgin West Coast &#039;Lady in Red&#039; Train Pack (Sound Fitted)
This Virgin Class 43 HST &quot;Lady in Red&#039; Train Pack brings the bold red branding of Virgin to your model railway layout, ensuring an eye-catching visual as it charges round the track. This OO model locomotive pack features NEM tension lock couplings and is ready-fited with HM7000 sound control, giving you a digital model railway experience.&amp;nbsp;
Virgin Trains won both the InterCity West Coast and InterCity CrossCountry franchises following privatisation of BR, commencing services under its Virgin branding in 1997. It inherited a variety of locomotives and rolling stock from BR, including InterCity 125 HST sets.&amp;nbsp;
Class 43 power car 43093 had been named &amp;lsquo;York Festival 88&amp;rsquo; under BR, but was renamed &amp;lsquo;Lady in Red&amp;rsquo; in 1997, which it carried until 2003, while 43097 had been called &amp;lsquo;The Light Infantry&amp;rsquo; until 1990, but entered service with Virgin CrossCountry without a name. Painted in the company&amp;rsquo;s red and black livery, with white markings, both later became part of First Great Western&amp;rsquo;s HST fleet.

This BR Class 56 model locomotive is pre-fitted with sound and controllable via your HM7000 app for an impressive digital hobby experience. With sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings, this stylish blue and yellow model is a wonderful addition to your model railway layout.&amp;nbsp;
The 50th anniversary of the completion of the first Class 56 is marked in 2026. The first of the 135-strong class arrived at Harwich from Romania in 1976, before commissioning by BR the following year. Only 30 examples were imported, due to relatively poor build quality, and these were subsequently rebuilt.&amp;nbsp;
The remainder of the class were assembled by BREL at Doncaster and Crewe, with Ashford, Eastleigh, and Swindon supplying sub-assemblies, while Ruston-Paxman supplied the power units. No.56001 was new to Tinsley and withdrawn from Cardiff Canton in September 1996 after 19 years and six months in service with BR.

<p>LNER A4 4468 &#039;Mallard&#039; LNER Garter Blue (Sound/Smoke Fitted)
One of the most famous of all steam locomotives, &amp;lsquo;Mallard&amp;rsquo; still holds the world speed record for steam. In July 1938, it reached 126mph on Stoke Bank.
Entering service in March of that year in LNER Garter blue, it had full side valances and red wheels, as depicted by our highly detailed model. It was renumbered 22 in 1946, by which time it carried wartime plain black. When it was withdrawn from King&amp;rsquo;s Cross in April 1963, it was in lined BR green and numbered 60022.
The locomotive is preserved in its original livery at the National Railway Museum in York. &#039;Mallard&#039; has always been one of our most popular models. In 2026, we have given the A4 a tooling update and the model now includes the new Hornby steam generator technology, working headlights and tender lights.

The BR Rebuilt Merchant Navy &#039;Clan Line&#039; is back in OO model form. This newly tooled model locomotive has sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings and is a highly detailed replica of a popular steam engine.
One of the last of its class to be built, this locomotive was completed after nationalisation of Britain&amp;rsquo;s railways to Bulleid&amp;rsquo;s Southern &amp;lsquo;Merchant Navy&amp;rsquo; design, complete with streamlined casing and chain-driven valve gear, entering service in December 1948. It didn&amp;rsquo;t receive its name until January 1951, during a ceremony at Southampton Docks.
Like all 30 members of the class, &amp;lsquo;Clan Line&amp;rsquo; was rebuilt, in its case, during 1959, and remained in service until withdrawal from Nine Elms, London in July 1947. It was subsequently saved privately for preservation and is a regular main line performer, once hauling the prestigious Belmond British Pullman.
Please Note: this model requires a DCC controller or the HM7000 app to control.&amp;nbsp;

History:
Released into BR traffic from Vulcan Foundry as D6971 on 18 March 1965, this locomotive was first allocated to Cardiff Canton. It was rebuilt as a Class 37/4 and renumbered 37418 in 1985 and transferred to Inverness. It received its unusual name &amp;lsquo;An Commun Gaidhealach&amp;rsquo; (The Gaelic Association) at Edinburgh in October 1986, before entering the Provincial General Pool from January 1989.&amp;nbsp;
It was renamed &amp;lsquo;Pectindae&amp;rsquo; in April 1992, and then &amp;lsquo;East Lancashire Railway&amp;rsquo; in April 1994, eventually being sold to a private owner in 2007 by EWS. It is currently on-hire to freight operator Loram Rail and painted in its livery, the &amp;lsquo;An Commun Gaidhealach&amp;rsquo; name being reinstated in February 2024.

<p>RailRoad: Class 08, 08512 EWS (Sound Fitted)
This RailRoad Class 08 Shunter is the ideal model for arranging wagons in a goods yard and is suitable for model railway layouts large or small. It comes DCC-ready with a Next 18-pin plug, so you can upgrade it to run on DCC or with our HM7000 Bluetooth-controlled system, which also includes sound via a speaker inside the locomotive.
The Class 08 350hp diesel electric shunter was the standard BR general-purpose shunting locomotive with 996 examples built between 1952 and 1962. They could be found shunting large marshalling yards and smaller goods depots. With the decline in the handling of individual goods wagons and the need to assemble trains, by 2000 there were just 100 left in service, with large numbers either scrapped, exported or sold into industrial use.
Many of these useful locomotives found their way into the fleets of freight operating companies and 08512 is depicted as a typical EWS fleet member in the company&amp;rsquo;s eye-catching red and gold colour scheme.

This RailRoad Class 55 &amp;lsquo;Deltic&amp;rsquo; diesel was built for high-speed express trains making it the perfect diesel for pulling a rake of coaches. It comes DCC-ready with a Next 18-pin plug, meaning it can be upgraded to run on DCC and with our HM7000 Bluetooth-controlled system, which also includes sound via a speaker inside the locomotive.
The production &amp;lsquo;Deltics&amp;rsquo; were a powerful Type 5 locomotive, designed for high-speed express passenger services on the East Coast Main Line. When introduced in 1961, these were the most powerful diesel locomotives in the world. Powered by two big Napier diesel engines, these locomotives – later known as Class 55s – were capable of speeds of up to 117mph (188km/h) and all were given names in the best tradition of East Coast express locomotives.
Known affectionately as &amp;lsquo;KOYLI&amp;rsquo; by enthusiasts, 55002 is finished in a two-tone green livery, reminiscent of the early 1960s, but with full yellow ends and the classic white cab window surrounds.

<p>RailRoad Plus: Class 73 73128 GBRf NSE (Sound Fitted)
This RailRoad Class 73 diesel has been used for both passenger and freight trains over the years, so it is suited to many model railway layouts. It comes fitted with a 21-pin plug, so you can run it on DCC or with our HM7000 Bluetooth-controlled system, which also includes sound via a speaker inside the locomotive.Introduced by BR in 1963, what is now known as the Class 73 is an electro-diesel locomotive, which are also referred to as EDs. As well as operating on the Southern Region&amp;rsquo;s 650-750v DC third-rail network, these locomotives have a 600hp diesel engine, allowing them to work over non-electrified routes and into sidings and yards where there isn&amp;rsquo;t a third rail power source. From new, all 49 locomotives were fitted for push-pull working with Southern Region multiple units.
No. 73128 is owned by GBRf and has been painted in the attractive red, white and blue retro livery of former BR sector Network SouthEast and was named &amp;lsquo;Kent &amp;amp; East Sussex Railway&amp;rsquo; at Robertsbridge in honour of the heritage line&amp;rsquo;s 50th anniversary in June 2024.

Locomotive information and history:
With the nationalisation of Britain&amp;rsquo;s railways, the &amp;lsquo;Princess Royal&amp;rsquo; Class Turbomotive later shed its LMS insignia, to be replaced with the new emblem of British Rail and a black livery shortly after receiving its new crest. After a long period of general repair, Turbomotive returned to the main line in 1947 under the number 46202, continuing its function as a distinct and entirely uniquely designed steam turbine locomotive.
In 1949, the locomotive suffered a turbine failure and as result of post-war budgeting of the time, it was best decided to take the locomotive from service and awaiting rebuilding into a convetional design.&amp;nbsp;
Following rebuilding and completion in 1952, 46202 rolled out of Crewe works loooking very different. The rebuilding included the fitting of various Princess Coronation (Duchess) class parts and became a half way between the eariler Princess Royal class and preceding Princess Coronation class.
Now in BR green livery and named &quot;Princess Anne&quot;, the locomotive wuld only see two months of service before being involved in one of the worst railway disasters ever, at Harrow and Wealdstone. It was scrapped shortly after deemed beyond the point of saving.
It is because of 46202 been scrapped, that BR designed and built 8P class &quot;Duke of Gloucester&quot; as a replacement.</p></description>
