A new O gauge diesel locomotive from Heljan. The English Electric type 1 was the first production diesle locomotive type delivered to British Railways in 1957. The single cab 1000bhp locomotives proved so useful that several members of the class are still in service over 50 years later!

This model is painted in the early BR green livery with small yellow warning panels. The model is supplied without lettering/numbering or emblems, allowing you to complete the model to match a prototype of your choice.

A superb model of the famous GWR railcars. The razor edge design was the production version of the railcar, with an angular body incoporating a chassis able to support normal railway buffers and drawgear. This allowed a tail load to be hauled, in the form of an extra coach or van.

This O gauge model is built in brass and painted in the BR carmine and cream passenger livery.

A new model from Tower Brass expected late 2009. Pricing to be advised.

Currently under development for the Tower Brass range is the Great Western Castle class 4-6-0. A wide range of optional parts is planned to allow many the detail variations between locomotives to be recreated.

The model will be supplied with a Collett pattern tender. The body will be in brass finish with the chassis factory painted black.

The first GWR Castles entered service in 1925 and the last of the class was completed under British Railways in 1950. These locomotives were the Great Westerns' principal express passenger type, but proved versatile enough to be employed on many other trains, including milk and express goods services. Over 150 were built, from which 8 have been preserved.

The LNER J39 0-6-0 is a new model for the Tower Brass range expected during 2009. The model will be supplied ready to run and factory painted in plain black with red buffer beam. These engines were usually painted black throught their careers, so your model can be completed simply with the addition of lettering, logos and numbers appropriate for your era.

This is the first model in the Tower Brass range to also feature a highly detailed chassis, including working inside motion. Several optional extras will be supplied to allow for detail variations, including the grate lowering apparatus, an extra lubricator and a pair of cab seats.

These sturdy locomotives, enlarged from earlier 0-6-0 types were capable of hauling local passenger and goods trains with equal ease. J39s were popular locomotives on many LNER branchlines in the North East, where their power was a welcome improvement over the older engines.

Tower models are expecting to receive their Lancashire & Yorkshire railway 0-4-0 Pug saddle tank models this Spring. This model is fully assembled and ready to run, completed in all-over black finish with red buffer beams. Only lettering, logos and numbers appropriate for your livery choice are required to prepare your L&Y Pug for service.

Designed by Aspinall for the L&Y the first Pug appeared in 1891, 57 being completed by 1910. Under LMS and later BR ownership many of the class ended up working far from home. Ideal for shunting docks and industrial areas where sharply curved track abounded the light weight Pugs worked as far away as Bristol, South Wales, Cumbria and Yorkshire. The last of these engines remained in service until 1964. Two examples were preserved.

Painted plain black for most of their careers, with a wide choice of LMS and BR era liveries can easily be applied.

One engine has been preserved, currently displayed as part of the goods services exhibit at the Swindon Steam museum.
