Bachmann 35-946SF Class 13 13003 BR Blue - Sound Fitted
Scale 1:76, OO gauge

The Class 13 Diesel Shunter is one of the few classes of diesel locomotive never to have been modelled in OO scale, until now! After mastering the Class 08, Bachmann Branchline has been slaving away on models of these enigmatic locomotives which were created from two Class 08s to shunt the Tinsley Marshalling Yard near Sheffield, South Yorkshire, between 1965 and 1985.

The new Branchline model shares a lot of its DNA with its Class 08 cousins, employing the same high mechanical and technical specification for smooth and powerful running, and with advanced electrical features like the Bach-Up Stay Alive system providing DCC users with uninterrupted power and the full suite of lighting which is user-configurable whether you’re running on analogue or DCC. What’s more, both the master and slave units are motorised and fully functional, meaning you’re effectively getting two locomotives in one!

Externally, new tooling has been produced to capture all the hallmarks of the master and slave units that made up the Class 13, from the heavy-duty bufferbeams that were thickened and enlarged to add weight and aid adhesion on the real locos to the drastic changes made to the slave unit with the removal of much of its cab and controls. This external beauty is brought to life by the exquisite livery application which uses true-to-prototype colours, fonts and logos to create the ultimate diesel shunter.

This SOUND FITTED model adds another level of realism, producing authentic sound effects on both analogue control. Pre-fitted with two premium Zimo DCC decoders, a sound decoder in the master unit and a loco decoder in the slave, the sound is synchronised and played through the speakers in both the master and slave thanks to a discreet wired connection between the two units. When used on DCC, a full suite of sounds can be enjoyed, along with the operation of several lighting features using function buttons, all without falter thanks to the Bach-Up Stay Alive system.
