Featuring a wealth of finely moulded detail and many separately fitted parts including the handrails, pipework and sand box operating rods.

Era 3 - 4970 Sketty Hall is painted in the classic Great Western lined green livery with the tender lettering in the pre-1934 style.

This Loco comes already DCC fitted

A very nice model of the Collett designed Castle Class 4-6-0 4081 Warwick Castle as running in  early BR days. The Castles provided the mainstay motive power for express passenger work until the end of steam on Western region. Only the Kings were more powerful.for heavier trains but having marginally smaller driving wheels were not necessarily as fast..

The classic GWR brunswick green was retained with lining on WR express loco's - Warwick Castle has the early cycling lion logo on the tender sides.

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.

Era 4 - 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.

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 quickly collecting layers of dust and dirt. It's unlikely even this weathered model represents the filthy condition in which one of these engines might have completed it's days work!

New model announced 2009. Expected Winter 2009/10

The GWR 56xx class 0-6-2 locomotives were built initially for South Wales valley routes, where heavy tank engines were needed to handle 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.

Era 5 - This model of 5639 painted in the BR black livery with late crest is completed in a weathered finish. 

A model of the Dean Achilles class 4-2-2 single driving wheel locomotive Duke of Edinburgh.

Churchwards' 28xx class 2-8-0 heavy freight engines revolutionised goods train services on the GWR in the 1900s.

Built in 1905 number 2818 served the GWR and BR in heavy freight service until 1963. The locomotive was selected for preservation as it still retained the original Churchward cylinder block with internal steam pipes. Initially the locomotive was in the care of the City of Bristol and was displayed during in the 1973 Bristol 600 celebrations. In 1975 the former York locomotive shed opened as the new National Railway Museum and 2818 tooks a place in the roundhouse. G J Churchward introduced a number of improvements and standardisation in motive power, crafting the first modern steam locomotive fleet in Britain. 2818 represents this huge step forward in the development of the steam locomotive.
