Prototype information

^* 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.

The Heljan Class 76 EM1 Woodhead electric locomotive (model number 26020) is a limited‑edition OO‑scale kit supplied for Olivia’s Trains. It depicts a British Railways unit in plain black livery with the early crest emblem and is finished to a pristine standard.

The model is DCC‑ready, fitted with a 21‑pin socket, and runs on electric power. It features NEM/Tension‑lock couplings, a minimum curve radius of 2 inch, and a Bo‑Bo wheel arrangement. The prototype was built between 1941 and 1953 at LNER Doncaster Works (prototype) and BR Gorton Works, with a total production of 58 units. The locomotive is represented with the early British Rail crest and carries the running number 26020.
