A Class 325. Does it exist in any form in N Gauge?

Tried google but nothing concrete......

Be interested to know if one exists.

Me too! Get to see these coming through the station on my way home, usually daily, around 5 PM. Three units in the formation, and they really do belt along!

Such a nice shape, and the livery is great. But apart from the WCML, where else do they run?

Cheers, NeMo

Nope, just like the unit. Would also loco drag a unit if a 325 ever became available in N Gauge.

Keep a Look out on the OW thread. Me and Tim (Bluedepot) had a marathon running sesh tonight. He got the footage and will put it on Youtube soon.

Hope you are well

According to Wikipedia they have at least one unit on the East coast running between London and Newcastle.

Hi,

Is that the one that is both electric and diesel from the class 166?

I think I got that on on my train simulator game. Would be interesting if there was one about.

It is totally an EMU but has overhead line and 3rd rail shoe so fairly versatile. It also can be loco dragged where necessary.

I was just wondering if you could get a suitable shaped mail coach and use N-Train's Class 166 ends...

I thought that I had heard of someone making a 3D printed kit not so long ago - although not ready to buy yet. :hmmm:

Thank You Chris, you've just reminded me that i still have to send you some pictures of the 'bit box' so you can have first dibs on any stuff you might need for OW mk2.

If your over the West-Mids come and pop in. It would be great to see you again :thumbsup:

It would be cool if someone did release a kit or even a RtR model. I would even settle for an un-motorised one so i could loco haul/Drag it round.
