Heljan Class 58 diesel model (58009) reproduces a British Rail Class 58 locomotive in Mainline Freight livery. The model is built to OO gauge, measures 250 mm in length and is finished to a pristine standard. It represents the period of the initial privatisation of British railways and carries the operating number 58009.

The locomotive is DCC Ready, fitted with an 8‑pin socket and directional lighting. Power is collected from four of the six axles, and the couplings are NEM with tension lock. It runs on a maximum speed of 80 mph and can negotiate a minimum curve radius of 438 mm (second radius).

The model is the first version produced by Heljan, with the manufacturer part number 5806. The real‑world Class 58 was built between 1983 and 1987, with a total of 50 units produced, and was operated by Mainline Freight Limited.
