This hugely popular little Ruston & Hornsby 0-6-0DE has been the subject of two previous production runs since 2018, but demand continues to be strong for BR, industrial and preserved versions. This new batch includes representatives of all three sectors, plus a British Army green locomotive inspired by the similar Ruston-built locomotives used on internal railways such as the Bicester Military Railway. Please note V1 models are vacuum braked 'as built' locomotives. V2 models feature high-level air pipes and compressor compartments.
