Why this model matters
The State Rail Authority Candy livery marked a new era in New South Wales rail operations during the late 20th century. Its bold red finish with clean striping became one of the most recognisable colour schemes in Australian rail history.
The 42 class locomotives continued to serve through this transition, carrying updated branding that reflected modern rail operations. This model captures that shift, making it ideal for layouts set in the SRA period.
How to use it
Place the locomotive on HO scale track and supply power through your layout controller. Couple to rolling stock using standard HO couplings. No paint, glue or modelling tools are required.
This is a plastic model. Assembly, paint, and glue are not required. It is not a toy.
