The GWR 49XX Hall Class was one of the Great Western Railway’s (GWR) most successful mixed traffic steam locomotives, making it a fitting subject for this Bachmann Branchline OO Scale model. A high level of detail is exhibited throughout the Branchline model, starting with the metal running plate onto which separate components like the steam pipes, splashers and metal lamp brackets are fitted. The boiler, firebox and cab are all high fidelity plastic mouldings, sporting separate metal handrails and handrail knobs, whilst an authentic copper cap is fitted to the chimney. Inside the cab, separate glazing is employed and the detailed boiler backhead is finished with appropriate decoration to the various controls, pipes and gauges.
