NEW OO9 GAUGE LOCOMOTIVES
|
|
Rapido Trains UK has announced that they are adding an exciting new tooled body for their existing 009 Gauge 'Sirdar' Class range; the brand-new ‘What If’ Short-Tank Sirdar Class 0-4-0! What's more - we've got our own EXCLUSIVE version available here at Rails!
Narrow gauge loco builders rarely had an off-the-shelf template; this was due to the varying needs and desires of the companies that placed the orders with them. So, there were many 'unique' locomotives with a general manufacturer design style. Taking inspiration from these, Rapido have developed their new highly detailed 009 Gauge models of Kerr, Stuart & Co. ‘What If’ Short-Tank Sirdar Class 0-4-0. This has design elements from several “real” locos, combining them into a prototypically literate model. |

FREELANCE WAGON RANGE PRE-ORDER NOW
|
|
Narrow gauge railways across the world utilised an enormous amount of similar yet subtly different wagons. As such, to kick-start Rapido Narrow Lines, Rapido have created a range of new 009 wagons, each inspired by a plethora of narrow gauge prototypes.
The range includes a vast array of wagon body styles to suit the needs of any 009 modeller. They understand that narrow gauge railways were used for so much more than just slate quarries and preserved lines of North Wales, so they have included as many wagon variants as possible to suit your modelling needs.
from £22.05 each
