Why this model matters
The Class 57 is a rebuild of the long-serving Class 47, upgraded with a new engine and modern electronics. This gave older locomotives a new role in a changing rail network.
Locomotive 57306 operates with GB Railfreight, a key freight operator in the UK. These locomotives handle container trains, infrastructure duties, and special services across the network.
DCC sound adds another layer of realism. You hear the engine start, throttle changes, and movement across your layout, bringing your railway to life.
How to use it
Place the locomotive on a DCC-powered OO gauge track. Pair it with your DCC controller to access sound functions and drive control. Couple it with freight wagons or coaching stock for realistic operation. No assembly, paint, or glue is required.
This is a ready-to-run model. Assembly, paint, and glue are not required. It is not a toy.
