Bachmann OO 31-742ASF BR 58051 MR Class 1P 0-4-4T BR Lined Black Early Emblem DCC & Sound

Although the first examples were built in 1881, almost seventy years later British Railways inherited many of these Victorian machines following Nationalisation and set them to work on the branch lines and local services with which they were already very familiar. Reproduced as this marvel in miniature, the Branchline model comes packed with an impressive level of detail wherever you look. A significant proportion of the 1P is made from diecast metal, with fine engraving and detailing, which is complemented by precision moulded components capturing every aspect of the prototype in high fidelity. Sprung buffers are fitted to each bufferbeam, whilst in the cab, the locomotive controls are faithfully captured and decorated authentically. A vast tooling suite caters for the many variations seen on the real locomotives throughout their careers, whilst the technical specification is equally impressive, employing a coreless motor and with a Next18 DCC Decoder socket, firebox lighting and pre-fitted speaker which is fully utilised in this SOUND FITTED model. The livery application is the icing on the cake with a deep and consistent application of the black base layer which is then adorned with the colourful lining, numbering and BR emblems, all replicated using advance printing techniques to capture every element of decoration.
