Bachmann 50-003SFX Class 66/7 66761 'Wensleydale Railway Association' GBRf Europorte - Sound Fitted Deluxe
Scale 1:76, OO gauge

The Class 66 Diesel Locomotive revolutionised the British rail freight landscape when the first examples arrived in 1998, and more than a quarter of a century later, the type remains at the forefront of freight operations the length and breadth of the country. Now, we are delighted to present the all-new Bachmann Branchline OO Scale Class 66 which has been designed from the rails up, capturing this modern icon like never before.

The new Class 66 combines a high-fidelity, injection-moulded bodyshell with a heavy, diecast chassis to which separate main frames are fitted. A multitude of individual parts are then added, manufactured in both metal and plastic, to capture every element of the prototype. The HTCR radial bogies are reproduced in miniature using multiple components, with many separately added details, resulting in these true to life replicas which interface neatly with the locomotive’s frames for an authentic appearance and accurate ride height. The separate axle heads that each rotate smoothly and reliably when the model is moving, mimicking this characteristic feature of the prototype, is the finishing touch.

The colourful liveries of modern operators present some challenges when it comes to decorating our models, but with extensive research, close collaboration with the operators themselves and decades of experience producing beautifully finished models, we are able to replicate every detail. Paintwork is applied with a rich, uniform finish using original specification colours, which is then adorned with logos, typefaces and graphics, all reproduced authentically using multi-stage printing techniques to produce a model with the finest of looks.

When it comes to technology, the specification doesn’t get any better than this SOUND FITTED DELUXE Class 66 which includes a full lighting suite with directional lights that can be switched between day and night modes, stabling mode, cab lights and machine room lights. The pre-fitted ESU Loksound V5DCC Sound Decoder plays authentic sounds through the Dual Fitted XL speaker system, and operational interruptions – like sound cut outs, stalling and light flicker – are a thing of the past thanks to our Bach-Up Stay Alive System. The Auto-Release Couplings fitted at either end of this Class 66 are the icing on the cake, providing hands-free, remote uncoupling, all automated and controlled by the press of a button.
