{"product_id":"wd-austerity-j94-saddle-tank-ncb-blue","title":"WD Austerity (J94) Saddle Tank - NCB Blue","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the early-1940s the War Department Austerity Saddle Tank has been a common sight on Britain’s railways – playing a vital role in the Allied victory of World War Two before becoming a mainstay of industrial operations and, more recently, heritage railways. Unveiled as part of the EFE Rail range, the WD Austerity Saddle Tank is a fitting subject as the brand’s first N scale steam locomotive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis all-new model is a high-fidelity miniature recreation of the prototype, sporting details such as metal handrails, sand boxes and pipes, brake hangers and separately fitted brake rigging, and a decorated cab backhead. Daylight is visible beneath the boiler, just as it should be, below which a representation of the inside motion has been moulded onto the chassis. The model is powered by a coreless motor, with electrical pickup from all wheels whilst each axle runs in a pair of separate metal bearings. DCC provision is by way of a 6 pin decoder socket located in the cab, however due to the limited space available a very small decoder such as the Bachmann 6 Pin Micro decoder (36-571) is required for this model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe National Coal Board was a major operator of Austerity Saddle Tanks after the war and this example is finished as No. 12 of the National Coal Board Kent; decorated in an attractive blue livery with yellow lining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMODEL FEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEFE Rail N Scale\u003cbr\u003e\nEra 6\u003cbr\u003e\nPristine National Coal Board Kent Lined Blue livery\u003cbr\u003e\nRunning No. 12\u003cbr\u003e\nAccessory Pack\u003cbr\u003e\nNEM Coupling Pockets\u003cbr\u003e\nPowerful Coreless Motor\u003cbr\u003e\nEquipped with a 6 Pin (Micro) DCC Decoder Socket – recommended Decoder item No. 36-571\u003cbr\u003e\nLength 63mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EFE Rail","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53436976955731,"sku":"E85503","price":124.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1028\/2985\/0963\/files\/Harburn_E85503.jpg?v=1777287538","url":"https:\/\/www.harburnhobbies.co.uk\/products\/wd-austerity-j94-saddle-tank-ncb-blue","provider":"Harburn Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
