<p>The LNER Gresley A4 is one of the most iconic express locomotives in Great Britain, with its streamlined casing a classic symbol of the attitude towards speed and design in the 1930s, which saw increased competition to the railways from road and air travel. The LNER Board knew that they had to make travel between the major cities faster, comfortable and more reliable.</p> <p>Nigel Gresley, the LNER's Chief Mechanical Officer, travelled on the Fliegende Hamburger diesel locomotive in Germany and was impressed by its streamlining, although he realized it was only efficient at high speeds. Gresley was certain that a modified A3 Pacific, with streamlining, could haul greater loads than other locomotives at the same speed or faster and a series of trials were conducted to confirm the A3's suitability.</p> <p>With the trials successfully completed, the LNER Board gave Gresley the go-ahead to create the "Silver Jubilee" streamlined trains, the first of the new streamlined A4s.The streamlining of the A4s' steam circuit, higher boiler pressure and extension of the firebox to create a combustion chamber made them more efficient than the A3 as they consumed less coal and water- especially later on when they were also fitted with a Kylchap double chimney. This improved their free steaming capabilities further. Their streamlined design not only made them capable of high speeds, but created an up draught of smoke, obscuring the driver's vision, a major problem on the new Class A4 engines. The story goes that during wind tunnel testing, after several unsuccessful efforts to get the smoke to lift clear, a thumbprint was inadvertently left on the clay model just behind the chimney. This succeeded in clearing the smoke and was incorporated into the final design.</p> <p>2511 Silver King was the 3rd A4 locomotive to be built, designed to pull the Silver Jubilee service. The locomotive entered service in November 1935 in the unique LNER Silver livery designed for the service. The locomotive would go on to work under BR before being scrapped in 1965, making it one of the longest serving A4 locomotives.</p> <h3>Specification</h3> <ul> <li>Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 19.1</li> <li>Item Height - Without Packaging (cm): 3.7</li> <li>Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 2.5</li> <li>Item Weight - Without Packaging: 0.15</li> <li>Item Scale: 1:120 Scale</li> <li>Finish: Painted</li> <li>Colour: Green</li> <li>Gauge: TT</li> <li>DCC Status: Next 18 Socket (NEM 662)</li> <li>Operator: BR</li> <li>Designer: Sir Nigel Gresley</li> <li>Wheel Configuration:4-6-2</li> <li>Livery: BR Green</li> <li>Minimum Curve (mm): Radius 2</li> <li>Motor: 3 Pole</li> <li>Number of Parts: 1</li> </ul>

<h3>SDS Models HO 800 SAR Tangerine 800 Class Locomotive</h3> <p>Entering service from the mid 1956 onwards these 10 English Electric 750 HP shunting locomotives were numbered from 800 to 809. They were predominantly found working around Port Adelaide and in particular Gilman Yard. Later and from time to time they could also be found working Passenger trains around the suburbs. They remained in service until the late 80s and some units through until 1991, all except 801 were scrapped. When AN commenced operations the class leader 800 was renumbered to 810.</p> <h3>Features</h3> <ul> <li>Highly detailed Ready-to-Run HO gauge model</li> <li>Precisely tooled plastic body (ABS)</li> <li>Genuine Kadee scale head whisker coupler</li> <li>Separately applied handrails and detail parts</li> <li>5-Pole skew wound electric motor and dual flywheels</li> <li>All wheel drive and electrical pickup</li> <li>LED head and marker lights, body mounted</li> <li>All models come standard with an MTC 21 pin motherboard</li> </ul>

<h3>SDS Models HO H2 VR Blue &amp; Gold T5 Series H Class Locomotive</h3> <p>The Victorian Railways received their second series of T class locomotives from late 1959, these were mechanically similar to the first series but featured a new raised height operating cab layout. This new style of raised cab design featured throughout the remainder of the T class series.</p> <p>SDS Models are pleased to offer the inclusion of the T-2 series within their range of Victorian Railways T class models.</p> <p>Based upon the tried and proven Austrains T class mechanism, SDS Models have comprehensively retooled almost every item, bringing the model inline with their exacting scale and design standards. Some 220 new or re-made parts are involved in the production of the four series.</p> <p>All the models now feature prototypically correct width long hoods, series specific and appropriate fuel tank and battery box combinations, improved appearance bogie side frames and brake shoe / wheel tread alignment and a host of other design detail enhancements.</p> <h3>Model Features:</h3> <ul> <li>Highly detailed Ready-to-Run HO gauge model</li> <li>Precisely tooled plastic body (ABS)</li> <li>Genuine Kadee scale head whisker coupler</li> <li>Separately applied handrails and detail parts</li> <li>5-Pole skew wound electric motor and dual flywheels</li> <li>All wheel drive and electrical pickup</li> <li>LED head and marker lights</li> <li>All models come standard with an MTC 21 pin motherboard</li> </ul>

<p>The DE10 type was introduced in 1966 as a general-purpose diesel locomotive used on branch lines and for shunting freight cars.</p> <p>Among the DE10 type owned by JR East, the vehicles mainly used in the Tokyo metropolitan area have had a door added to the front of the bonnet on the two ends due to the installation of ATS-P, resulting in a change in appearance.</p> <p>DE10 type trains were stationed at Utsunomiya Depot and Takasaki Rolling Stock Center in the Tokyo metropolitan area, but in 2017 all cars were moved to Takasaki Rolling Stock Center. The DE10 type trains stationed at Takasaki Rolling Stock Center are used as shunting locomotives at the depot, and are also used to pull construction trains.</p> <h3>Features</h3> <ul> <li>Reproduces the DE10 type stationed at JR East Takasaki Rolling Stock Center</li> <li>Reproduces the appearance with the driver's cab window replaced with a wiper and equipped with a snowplow</li> <li>Reproduces the appearance with a door added to the front of the bonnet on the 2nd end side</li> <li>Headlights are equipped with a constant-on board</li> <li>Headlights are lit by incandescent color LEDs</li> <li>Reproduces the appearance with a tablet catcher next to the driver's cab</li> <li>H-rubber is reproduced in black</li> <li>Bonnet connecting rubber is reproduced in gray</li> <li>See-through expression of the driver's cab</li> <li>Dummy coupler and self-coupled TN coupler included<br>Auxiliary weight included</li> <li>Number plate comes as a separate part「DE10-1654, 1685, 1697, 1698」</li> <li>Uses power with flywheel</li> <li>Uses black bogie frame and black wheels</li> <li>Uses M-13 motor</li> <li>Can run on mini curved railsPlease</li> </ul> <h3>Contents</h3> <p><strong>Vehicle</strong></p> <ul> <li>DE10-1000 (cold region type, Takasaki Vehicle Center)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Accessories</strong></p> <ul> <li>Runner parts: Number plate (red)</li> <li>Runner parts: Number plate (white)</li> <li>Runner parts: Manufacturer's plate</li> <li>Runner parts: Radio antenna</li> <li>Runner parts: Whistle</li> <li>Parts: Self-coupled TN coupler</li> <li>Parts: Dummy coupler</li> <li>Parts: Dummy coupler receiver</li> <li>Parts: Auxiliary weight</li> </ul>
