Manufacturer description
Back in the range for 2022 after a gap of several years, this model depicts the narrow-bodied Class 33s built to work the Tonbridge-Hastings line. Nicknamed ‘Slim Jims’, they worked freight and passenger duties and widened their sphere for operation in later years. Our new version depicts the ‘33/2s’ in as-built condition with original exhaust arrangement. All new models have also been upgraded to LED lights and a 21-pin DCC interface.

* 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.
