32-341SFXClass 25/2 D5282 BR Two-Tone Green (Small Yellow Panels) With DCC Sound Deluxe
The Class 25 Diesel Locomotive has long been a fixture of the Bachmann Branchline OO scale range, but this all-new model owes nothing to its predecessors. Designed from the rails up, this new family Class 25s from Bachmann Branchline encompasses Class 25/1s, 25/2s and 25/3s, capturing the differences – some small, some anything but – between the three distinct types. Regardless of the particular locomotive being depicted, every model features high fidelity mouldings and numerous separately fitted parts, with the utmost attention to detail paid to the features of the prototype.
Our new Class 25 is brought to life with an exquisite livery application using true-to-prototype colours, fonts and logos. Following the precedent set by the Bachmann Branchline Class 47, and subsequently the 37 and 31 too, the Class 25 features a full lighting suite and is available in three formats; standard, SOUND FITTED as in the case of this example which is pre-fitted with a DCC Sound Decoder, or SOUND FITTED DELUXE with the award winning motorised radiator fan and authentic tinted windscreen glazing features!
32-344Class 25/2 25085 BR Blue
Following publication of the British Railways Modernization Plan in 1955, the British Rail Class 25 diesels were introduced into service in 1961 and were more powerful than the Class 24 Bo-Bo diesels introduced three years earlier. A total of 325 Class 25 Diesel Locomotives over several sub-types were built, most at BR Derby, but some were constructed at Crewe and Darlington with a further 26 built by Beyer Peacock of Manchester.
As Type 2 locomotives, the Class 25s were often seen working in pairs to increase operational power. The class was, however, a true mixed traffic locomotive, equally at home on either passenger or mixed freight duties. They were well suited to the task of replacing steam traction on duties over a wide area of the British Railways system and were allocated to numerous depots across the Eastern, London Midland, Scottish and Western Regions. Although not allocated to the Southern Region, they were often seen on incoming and through traffic from the other regions. Following closure of numerous lines in the late 1960s and the resultant loss of passenger work, during the 70s & 80s they were more likely to be seen on either freight, newspaper, parcels or specialized duties. with notable examples including the provision of train heating for steam hauled specials in their swansong years. The Class was finally withdrawn from service in 1987, but twenty preserved locomotives survive to the present day.
R30182RailRoad Plus BR Class 47, Co-Co D1683
Built between 1962 and 1968, the Class 47 Co-Co Diesel-Electric locomotive was once the most numerous class of mainline diesel in Britain with 512 examples. 310 locomotives were constructed by Brush Traction in Loughborough, and the remaining 202 at Crewe. The locomotives were used for passenger and freight operations beginning in 1962 in the BR Green livery, before being repainted into the BR Blue colour scheme before further diversification saw them painted in all manner of liveries.
Strong performers, these locomotives were among some of the largest to be employed by British rail. The first five withdrawals were all due to accident damage with the first planned decommissioning taking place in February 1986. As withdrawals began, ostensibly due to a lack of parts the withdrawn engines in turn solved this issue, and therefore the Class 47 disappeared slowly once withdrawals began.
In 2023, 30 of the class remain operational on the national network with West Coast Railways being the largest operator, 17 are stored, 33 have been converted to the Class 57 and an additional 32 have been preserved.
