A brand new 00 gauge example especially developed by “Heljan Railways” as part of their latest DCC ready series. This engine is the Class 07 BHN RC V1 07001 Diesel Electric 0-6-0 Shunter.
The British Rail Class 07 diesel locomotive is an off-centre cab 0-6-0 diesel-electric shunter type built by Ruston & Hornsby in 1962 for the Southern Region of British Railways. The 14 members of the class were primarily used at Southampton Docks and later also at Eastleigh Works.
Whilst having superior visibility compared to Class 08/09, the 07s were a non-standard engine. This probably resulted in the Class 07 being withdrawn after a fairly short life span, 15 years at most, the 07013 was officially withdrawn in July 1977.
