Rails Wrainwright D Class from Rails

[Georgeconna]

All I can say is glad I did not fork out for the J15, the SECR liveried engine is only just georgous and I have sinned and pre ordered one.

Just hope it looks like the model in the pick below (O gauge though)this, the 4 and 6 wheelers then from Hattons. Man Alive this never stops!!

 

 

The partnership of Dapol, Rails of Sheffield and Locomotion Models have today (15th October 2019) announced the release of a brand new OO scale model of the South Eastern & Chatham Railway D Class 4-4-0 locomotive. This is the first time that this locomotive has been produced in OO in ready to run form. It has been produced using the preserved No.737 locomotive in association with the team of expert contributors from the museum and specialist modellers. Six versions are available to Pre-order through Rails:

4S-027-001 Wainwright D Class SECR Green 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.488 (Pre Grouping Silk Finish)

4S-027-002 Wainwright D Class Southern Lined Maunsell Olive Green 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.1730

4S-027-003 Wainwright D Class BR Sunshine Black 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.31731

4S-027-004 Wainwright D Class BR Lined Black Early Crest 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.31574

4S-027-005 Wainwright D Class SECR Grey (Scraped Beading) 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.726

4S-027-006 Wainwright D Class Southern Sunshine 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive No.1734

The models can be pre-ordered from today for a deposit of £30.00. Delivery is expected in Q3 2020 and our aim is to produce the model for less than £200 (subject to £ / USA $ exchange rates on delivery) The first EP sample already here and is currently under review. CLICK HERE TO PRE-ORDER

Models will have NEM coupling pockets, Next-18 Decoder socket, ‘pullout’ PCB and solderless speaker (plus provision for customer to fit Bass reflex speaker in tender). Locomotives will feature a firebox flicker effect. Another feature is the drawbar between the locomotive and tender which is of a new ‘pinless’ type carrying the electrical connection. Dapol are the first manufacturer to use this type of drawbar on a British outline OO scale locomotive. To couple the locomotive to the tender it is necessary to connect on it on a straight piece of track to enable them to be pushed together.

Nice loco, it's got a lot of style and looks well on all the liveries.

Absolutely gorgeous. Saw the real thing in York about 10 years ago. Gives an idea of what some of the classic Irish 4-4-0s must have looked like in their ‘company’ liveries before all went grey!
