A brand new 00 gauge example especially developed by “Bachmann Branch-line” as part of their latest DCC ready series. This engine is the Class 20/3 Diesel Locomotive., complete with all accessories and paperwork
The British Rail Class 20, otherwise known as an English Electric Type 1, is a class of diesel electric locomotive. In total, 228 locomotives in the class were built by English Electric between 1957 and 1968, the large number being in part because of the failure of other early designs in the same power range to provide reliable locomotives.
The locomotives were originally numbered D8000–D8199 and D8300–D8327. These loco’s are known by railway enthusiasts as “Choppers”. Some Class 20s were used on the construction of the Channel Tunnel and High Speed 1, some even made their way to France!
