Dapol Class 59/0 59002 "Alan J Day" MRL Mendip Rail (Sound/Smoke)

Class 59/0 59002 "Alan J Day" MRL Mendip Rail (Sound/Smoke Fitted) - OO Scale The Class 59 is a Co-Co formation diesel locomotive and the first US produced, privately-owned locomotive to operate regularly in the UK. The ordering of the first Class 59 was a result of quarry company Foster Yeomans dissatisfaction with the performance of the BR Class 56. The first 4 locomotives built by GMs Electromotive Division were delivered to Foster Yeoman during 1986 and 59005 in 1989. Proving very successful; one locomotive setting a new UK haulage record for a single locomotive of 4639 tonnes. Foster Yeomans rivals, Amey Roadstone Corp. (ARC) also ordered four modified Class 59s (59/1) as did National Power, who ordered six (59/2). GM invested in this initial UK success by extensively modifying the class 59 internally to produce the Class 66, also hugely successful, within both the UK and Continental Europe. Other than 59003 (which after return from loan to HHPI in Germany, is operated by GBRf), the Class 59 fleet is operated today by DB Schenker and Mendip Rail (an ARC and FY joint venture). Model Based on the huge success of the first production run of OO Gauge Class 59’s Dapol have decided to announce the launch of the second production run of this fantastic model. These models will feature lots of era specific details and markings and lots of external body details. They will also include a fully detailed cab. Features DCC fitted Sound Module Installed Smoke Unit Installed Finely moulded body with many applied fine details Printed name plates (Etched plates supplied separately) Cast wheels with fine relief and appropriate colouring Heavy diecast chassis with all wheel pick up NEM coupling pockets as standard All class 59 versions tooled Operating, independently controlled headlight and cab lights (all lighting variations tooled) DCC controlled fully independent lighting: Push/Pull and light engine modes for head and tail lights Day/Night headlamp selection Marker lamp control (where applicable) Independent cab lighting (leading cab /trailing cab /off) (DCC Only) Optional clag smoke simulation on initial acceleration

Locomotives so painted were generally keep very clean by shed staff and crews. The 113 members of the class all continued their sterling work until the first locomotive was withdrawn in 1958. The final locomotive was withdrawn out of normal service in 1964 but two were transferred to Departmental Stock, one of these locomotives lasted in this roll until 1967.

Dapol Class 142 142038 Regional Railways GMPTE (N)

Class 142 142038 Regional Railways GMPTE The British Rail Class 142 is a type of diesel railbus multiple unit designed to run in pairs for use on branch lines in Northern and South Western England and North Wales. Ninety six of the sets were built by BREL at Derby between 1985 and 1987 and followed on from the design of the Class 141. Initially, the Class 142 exhibited many operational problems including the inability to negotiate tight curves, a lack of power with poor braking and a rough uncomfortable ride. The class was extensively modified in subsequent years to overcome some of these shortcomings with the adoption of a more powerful diesel engine, uprated brakes and a plethora of internal and external detail improvements. Even with these changes the Class 142 was deemed unsuitable for working the tighter curves of the South Western rail system and the fleet was transferred post privatisation between NW Trains and Northern Spirit, where they are still used primarily on commuter routes between the major cities of the region.  Features: A Powered and a dummy car in each set  NEXT-18 DCC Decoder Socket Detailed bodies with flush glazing  Close coupling mechanism with corridor connectorScharfenberg coupling mechanism fitted as standard  All wheel drive and pick up on power unit  Directional lights on both carsIndependently controllable internal (where fitted) and external lighting  Accessory bag with optional fitted components  - N Scale
