The Heljan model represents the British Rail Class 23 “Baby Deltic” diesel locomotive, number D5901, in the original BR green livery with the late crest. It is built to OO gauge and includes a DCC‑ready 8‑pin socket, with power picked up from all wheels.
The locomotive is fitted with NEM couplings with a tension‑lock, a Bo‑Bo wheel arrangement and a minimum curve radius of the 2nd radius (438 mm). It is modelled after the original unit built by English Electric at Vulcan Foundry in 1959, of which only ten were produced, and it is capable of a maximum speed of 75 mph.
The model is finished to a pristine standard, carries the manufacturer part number 2304 and depicts the period represented by British Railways' late crest.
