Railcars and unit trains are now the principal types of trains in use on Britains Railways. The first successful diesel trains were the GWRs' streamlined railcars. British Rail built Diesel Multiple Units (DMUs) to take over from steam locomotives on branchline and suburban passenger trains in the 1950s and 60s.
Today the Intercity 125 High Speed Train (HST) and Voyager trains form the backbone of the British passenger rail network.

Graham Farish N BR Class 108 2-Car DMU Plain Blue Livery (371-877)

Please note that the Blue and Blue & Grey units have been labelled incorrectly so are not as per catalogue.

A new N gauge DMU is particularly welcome and the BR Derby design class 108 is certainly a good choice as these units worked in most areas of Britain.

This 2-car unit is painted in the later blue and grey livery, first used on refurbished units from the early 1980s.

Introduced in the 1950's these DMU's replaced steam passenger trains on branch lines and local services across the country. The ability to couple these trains together to form longer trains when needed with just one driver and guard made these units very flexible in service. The last units of this type were still in passenger service in 2000 and several sets have been preserved.
