Prototype Era
Era 4 (1948 to 1956) British Railways Early Crest
Manufacturer description
General Specification
Many original GA drawings were used in the development of these accurate and authentic model.
Building on the many developments from the Dapol Mogul including Dapol's award winning slide in PCB in the boiler for tool free DCC fitting and sugar cube speaker enclosure (for sound models). Conductive drawbar providing tender wheel pick-up and connections for high bass speaker.
The locomotive will have all of the usual refinements that are expected to be found on all Dapol models including:
- A diecast compensated chassis
- Detailed cab interior with screw reverse
- The front pony truck is also sprung and operates on a cam so the model will negotiate R2 curves with ease.
Technical Specification
- A slide in PCB offers simple ‘tool-free’ installation of a NEXT-18 DCC decoder and a ’no-solder’ speaker connection. This board slides through the smoke box door and connects directly to the locomotive mother board.
- The tender to locomotive drawbar includes reliable electrical connections moulded within the close-coupling push-fit coupling. This eliminates wired plugs and unreliable wiper style connections.
- The locomotive and tender have electrical pick-up on all driving and tender wheels
- An optional base reflex speaker can be fitted into the tender. An audio frequency filter is integrated within the main locomotive PCB to ensure each speaker reproduces within it’s ideal frequency range*
- Firebox glow (synchronised with sound*)
- Dapol’s proven slow speed mechanism and high torque motor
- Enhance your driving experience with our feature RealDrive*

Dapol OO Dinmore Manor 7820 is a 4 mm scale (OO gauge) model of the Great Western Railway 7800 “Manor” class locomotive, bearing the number 7820 and named Dinmore Manor. The model is finished in a pristine lined black livery with the early British Railways emblem and is supplied with a DCC Ready Next‑18 socket. It measures 130 mm in length, rides on a die‑cast compensated chassis and couples using a NEM close‑coupling push‑fit system.
Key technical features include a slide‑in printed circuit board that allows tool‑free installation of a NEXT‑18 decoder and a solder‑free speaker connection, with the board accessing the locomotive through the smoke‑box door. Electrical pickup is provided on all driving and tender wheels, and the tender‑to‑locomotive drawbar incorporates conductive connections moulded within the coupling. An optional base‑reflex speaker can be fitted in the tender, and the model offers firebox glow synchronised with sound, a high‑torque motor and Dapol’s RealDrive system for enhanced control. The front pony truck is sprung and operates on a cam, enabling smooth negotiation of R2 curves.
The prototype locomotive was built at Swindon in November 1950 to a design by Charles Collett, entered service with British Railways and was withdrawn in November 1965 after fifteen years. A total of thirty examples of the class were produced. The Dapol model carries the manufacturer part number 4S‑001‑008 and represents the British Railways Early Crest period.
