Title: Gaugemaster Collection Class 56s
Post by: Skyline2uk on December 10, 2022, 11:52:03 AM
Not sure if these past under the radar, but notable for finally seeing a Dutch 56 being offered.

GM2210701
CLASS 56 032 COUNTY OF SOUTH GLAMORGAN RAILFREIGHT METALS
RRP £159.95

GM2210702
CLASS 56 031 'MEREHEAD' BR DUTCH GREY/YELLOW
RRP £159.95

I first found out about these via a Rails of Sheffield email, and they are offering standard retailer discounts as I am sure many others will.

Not a fan of the real grids but having purchased a TMC weathered Colas Rail Freight 56 for Clifton Wood I must say they are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC locos from Dapol.

Weighty, great haulage and very VERY slow running.

Looks like a Dutch might have to be ordered!!
