R3735ROD, J36 Class, 0-6-0, 5662
Built at Cowlairs in November 1891, NBR No. 662 was rebuilt in May 1915 and was one of twenty five Class C locomotives requisitioned by the Railway Executive on August 4, 1917 for use by the Railway Operating Division of the Royal Engineers.
Sent to the Western Front on 7 November, 1917, it is thought that ROD 5662 worked around Verquigneul in the Pas-de-Calais, proving reliable in ROD service. Returning on 12 April, 1919 to the UK, NBR 662 was named Birdwood.
R3859BR, Class J36, 0-6-0, 65330, Limited Edition
The J36 Class, as it was christened by the LNER started out life as the Matthew Holmes designed C Class built for the North British Railway, North British in this case being a euphemism for Scotland. The locomotives were introduced in 1888 and would number 168 at their most populous, with 123 of them lasting into BR service.

R60176ADrax Biomass Wagon Pack, 83700698071-3 & 83700698009-3
In 2013, Drax unveiled the UK’s first purpose-built biomass rail freight wagon at the National Railway Museum in York. Developed by designers at Lloyd’s Register Rail and manufactured by WH Davis, it is the largest ever produced and pushes the boundaries of rail engineering.
This award-winning wagon transports sustainable biomass from the Ports of Tyne, Hull, and Immingham to Drax Power Station, near Selby for use in generating low carbon, cost effective, and reliable renewable electricity.
At 18.9m long with top doors stretching 18.2m and bottom doors of 3.7m, the supersize wagon has a capacity of 116 cubic metres allowing a biomass load weighing 71.6 tonnes. Its volume is almost 30 per cent bigger than any freight wagon currently used in the UK.
The Drax biomass wagon pack consists of two bright blue Drax Northern Powerhouse liveried wagons with their respective running numbers, 83700698071-3 and 83700698009-3. R60177A contains two biomass wagons with different decals as decoration on the livery compared to this pack.
R30102Lumo, Class 803, 803005 Five Car Train Pack
The Class 803 AT300 is a new type of electric multiple unit passenger train built by Japanese rolling stock manufacturer Hitachi at their Newton Aycliffe factory in County Durham, based upon the Hitachi A-train design. While sharing a bodyshell with the previous UK A-train variants, the Class 803 differs in that it has no auxiliary diesel engines fitted. Batteries are fitted to power the on-board facilities in case of overhead line equipment failure.

R30140BR, M7 Class, 0-4-4T, 30038
Ideally suited to the demands of suburban workings with frequent station stops, the M7 possessed quick acceleration and good tractive power, equally at home on Branch line workings or acting as station pilots. Unfortunately, following a major derailment at Tavistock in 1898, the Class were withdrawn from fast passenger services, the 0-4-4 arrangement proving inherently unstable at continuous high speeds. While two M7s still exist in preservation, 30038 sadly is not among them.
32-084AGWR 56XX Tank 5684 GWR Green (GWR)
The 56XX 0-6-2 Tank Locomotives were some of the GWR’s finest workhorses and we’re delighted to welcome OO Scale models of these popular machines back to the Bachmann Branchline range.
The prototype’s aura of strength and ruggedness comes across in the Branchline model which packs a punch thanks to the substantial use of diecast metal in the chassis and bunker, ensuring that this smooth-running machine can pull significant loads. Meanwhile the bodyshell is produced from precision moulded plastic components to which separate details are fitted, like the metal handrails, intricate lubricators, tank ventilators and sprung metal buffers.
The chassis, powered by a substantial 3 pole motor, carries an 8 pin DCC decoder socket and is adorned with details like the springs, brake blocks, brake rigging and sand boxes – accompanied by separate wire sandpipes. Completing the package is the livery application of rich paintwork adorned with finely printed lettering and numbering to portray the iconic GWR livery at its finest.
31-483LNWR G2 9446 LMS Black
The London & North Western Railway (LNWR) had an long history of producing 0-8-0 tender freight engines with the first prototype design emerging in 1892, and the last, the G2, appearing in the early 1920s. The G2 was a class of 60 brand new steam locomotives built between 1921-22, and with a boiler generating a pressure of 175psi, they were the most powerful design the LNWR had ever constructed. From 1924 onwards, the G2s were rebuilt with a belpaire boiler which improved performance even further. The entire class passed into BR ownership in 1948, with the first withdrawals beginning in 1959 and the last in 1964. One example, No. 49395 has been preserved as part of the National Collection, where it has been restored to running order.
Owing to a lack of suitable freight engines in the 1930s, the LMS decided to rebuild a significant number of LNWR-built G1s with the powerful 175psi belpaire boiler found on the G2 to create a new class of locomotives, the G2A. These rebuilds were virtually indistinguishable from the G2s and were very successful for the LMS, with over 300 examples rebuilt. Although some were downgraded back to a 160psi boiler and reclassified to G1, the majority of the class was inherited by British Railways in 1948, with the last four cut up in 1964.
