(Cancelled)
Production Details:
This RailRoad Class 58 is a wonderful freight
locomotive to add to your layout, carrying a BR grey paint scheme with a
large BR logo on its side. This model comes with a socket for an 8-pin
decoder, 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. First delivered in 1983 the BR Class 58 was
designed and built for heavy freight. Its narrow body with a cab at each
end earned it the nickname of ‘bone’ in the railway community. Fifty of
the class were built and lasted for around two decades until finally
being withdrawn in 2002 with the introduction of the Class 66’s. Most of
the class were sadly scrapped but there is one example still operational
and a number of them in storage or under restoration.
