A new and highly detailed model of the original Collett design Hall class mixed traffic 4-6-0. 4970 Sketty Hall 6914 was one of the 1929 batch of Halls, rapidly expanding this highly versatile class, replacing older Victorian era locomotives with Churchward style standard types.

Seprately fitted wire handrails and lamp brackets provide welcome relief to the clean lines of the GWR mixed traffic engine.

An excellent model of the Collett designed 0-6-0 goods engine ofd the 1930s. These locomotives, often referred to as Baby Castles due to ther family resemblence to the Collett passenger engines were intended to replace the Dean design Standard Goods 0-6-0 of the 1900s. A useful mixed-traffic design, able to handle passenger and goods trains economically the Collett Goods was the largest engine operated on many branchlines.

An excellent model of the Hawksworth designed County class 4-6-0 in British Railways mixed traffic lined black livery.

The county class was one of the few new designs produced by the GWR between WW2 and nationalisation. These locomotives featured a higher boiler working pressure than had previously been employed, allowing the simplier 2-cylinder locomotives to perform many tasks previously demanding a 4-cylinder design. The class was highly regarded by enginemen who learned how to get the best performance from them.

An excellent model of the GWR Churchward designed 43xx class 2-6-0 as running in the BR era. 4358 is modelled late condition with outside steam pipes. 

BR lined green livery with early emblem.

Weathered version of the GWR 'Collett Goods' 0-6-0 in BR black livery with the later heraldic crest. Designed as a replacement for the elderly Dean-designed 'Standard' goods engine, these locomotives worked all across the former GWR network. Being suitable for passenger and goods trains several of these locomotives worked trains on former LMS and the S&DJR routes in Gloucestershire and Somerset during the BR era.

The classic Great Western branchline engine, the 45xx class 2-6-2T were small but powerful locomotives able to run fast in either direction. Bachmann have produced a very good and smooth running model of these popular engines which remained in service until the end of steam on the Western region.

GWR 5565 represents the enlarged version of the class with extra water tank capacity and carries the last Great Western livery from the post-WWII era lettered G W R

A new version of the ex-GWR 56XX 0-6-2 tank engine with a factory fitted DCC decoder, ready to enter service on your DCC layout!

These powerful tank engines were based on designed used in South Wales, but spread across the entire GWR network, competently hauling local passenger and good trains.

A weathered version of the ex-GWR 56xx class 0-6-2 tank engine in BR black livery. These powerful and hard worked engines would not have stayed clean long, as they worked around the South Wales coal mines and docks they would quickly have collected layers of dust and dirt. It's unlikely even this weathered model represents the filthy condition one of these engines might have completed it's days work in!

New model announced 2009. Expected October 2009

The GWR 56xx class 0-6-2 locomotives were built initially for the South Wales valley routes, where a heavy tank engine was needed to handle the coal traffic. Introduced in 1924 the class proved so useful that within 5 years 200 locomotives were in service in every corner of the GWR network, efficiently handling local goods and passenger services.

This model of 5639 painted in the BR black livery with late crest is completed in a weathered finish. 

The 8750 class pannier tanks received a more modern cab styling than the original 57xx class of which these were a continuation.

9736 in BR black livery with early emblem

Bachmanns' 8750 class pannier tank was a major update to the former mainline 57xx model, introducing a much upgraded chassis and drive train for even better slow running. The 8750 class was also an update of the original 57xx, with the cab roof and bunker side sheets being combined for a more modern cab appearance. The other detail changes made at the same time have been faithfully reproduced on this model.

8751 is painted in the GWR green livery of the 1930s.

A reliable model well suited to the younger modeller. Hornby's 2721 class with it's distinctive open backed cab depicts an earlier type of GWR pannier tank locomotive to the Bachmann 57xx class.
