BR CLASS 08 SWITCHER - SOLD OUT!

The Pre-orders of this new locomotive have now sold out. Once all pre-orders have been fulfilled, there will be a second batch available to note your interest later in the year (2021). 
Please sign up for our newsletter to be among the first to be notified when the second release is available.

Originally built in the UK between 1952-1962 the BR Class 08 Switcher (Shunter in the UK) was a diesel electric workhorse that every railway line/yard needed. With a top speed of 15mph and enough power to pack a punch it no doubt justified earning its nickname Gronk. However, modern day changes to the railway meant less need for such a powerhouse and many have since been exported, sold to industrial or heritage railways or converted.  

Featuring: 
3D printed body and chassis
Etched metal detailing
New series X gearbox
Outer frames
6 wheel drive 0-6-0 configuration
Working Connecting Rods

Livery/colorways have been decided by you the public and due to popular consensus the color is to be BR Green with (ambitious) Wasp stripes ;)  

This loco will not have working head/tail lights.
The picture shown is of a penultimate pre-production test model and is not fully representative of the quality of the final product. 
This offer is limited to 2 per person.

Anticipated release price: $85.00
