Prototype information

^* Class names often change over the lifespan of a locomotive, so this is not necessarily the class name used by the operator in the period modelled.

The Bachmann British Rail Class 43 “Warship” model represents the diesel‑powered D836, named Powerful, in its original British Rail Blue livery. The locomotive is finished in pristine condition, measures 240 mm in length and carries the BR Blue colour scheme with the appropriate running number D836 displayed on the cab side. It is equipped with directional and interior lighting and uses a 21‑pin DCC ready socket for digital control.

This 00‑scale model is built to the specifications of the original Class 43 built between 1960 and 1962, of which only 33 were produced. The model accurately reproduces the maximum speed of 80 mph and the minimum curve radius of the second radius, 438 mm. The manufacturer part number is 32‑067A and the period represented is the pre‑TOPS British Rail Blue era.
