Bachmann 35-125ASF OO Gauge Class 20/3 20310'Gresty Bridge' DRS Blue DCC SOUND. PLEASE REVIEW THE PHOTOGRAPHS AS WELL, ACCESSORIES/BOXES ETC WILL BE SHOWN IF THEY ARE INCLUDED.

The Bachmann Branchline Class 20/3 was first released in 2021, and since then we've improved this stunning model further by fitting marker lights at the cab ends, meaning that when operated prototypically as pairs nose-to-nose, a full complement of lighting can now be enjoyed at either end of the formation. Forming a pair of models in original DRS Blue livery is No. This latest generation Bo-Bo diesel locomotive from Bachmann Branchline brings the classic BR Class 20 right up to date, capturing the subtle lines of these distinctive locomotives whilst sporting the modern look of the Class 20/3s - which had their ends made flush during refurbishment and fitted with Wipac light clusters and multiple working connectors. The high level of detail is brought to life by the intricate livery application, whilst the powerful drive mechanism, Plux22 DCC interface and a full suite of lighting offers the perfect complement to the model's good looks.

The British Railways Board's (BRB) 1955 modernisation plan called for a change to alternative forms of traction and manufacturers were asked to produce trial or initial designs for evaluation. English Electric adapted an existing design based on an export model for a 1,000bhp diesel and 20 were built as a pilot scheme for assessment. The first batch was built in 1957 and the diesels were assigned to work from Devon's Road depot, East London.

The design was a success from the start and by 1962 a total of 127 had been built. Following assessment of all the Type 1 diesels, BRB placed a further order increasing the total to 228 by 1968 and the design became the BR standard for 1,000bhp diesel locomotives. With the introduction of TOPS the locomotives were designated Class 20 and renumbered 20001 to 20228.

The Class 20s worked over the Eastern, London Midland and Scottish regions as well as into Wales and were commonly associated with coal traffic. The only drawback the Class had was its single end cab, unlike modern designs that have a cab at each end. BR's decision to switch to Type 5 and in particular Class 60 diesels in the late 1980s started a gradual withdrawal of the fleet, with just 28 left by 1994. At least 28 of the class are now preserved. We are a UK based retailer of a wide range of both new and pre-owned model railway equipment.
