Manufacturer description
The Platinum Jubilee
The HM Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee HST Train Pack locomotive units are dressed in a fictional livery to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty the Queen. Both power and dummy unit are able to accept an 8 pin decoder to allow for control of directional lighting and sound. The power car is fitted with a strong 5 pole motor, flywheel and dual bogie drive.
Reimagining an HST unit with a fictional celebratory Platinum Jubilee livery, this impressive train pack commemorates the occasion in the fashion of the LNER before nationalisation.
The Class 43 power units in Platinum Jubilee silver feature blue trim livery with matching First Class and two First Class Restaurant sliding door Mk3 coaches (available separately).
43025 was built in 1977 and has been named City of Peterborough at various points over its service life. As of 2020 43052 is in storage at the Longmoor Military Railway wearing the East Midlands Trains Livery awaiting it’s fate, it has been suggested that this unit is likely to be scrapped. Before Storage, it was based out of Neville Hill in Leeds.
43022, constructed in 1976 still sees regular service on the Great Western network, and is based out of Laira as of 2015. 43022 currently wears the GWR green livery, while previously wearing the First Great Western and Intercity liveries.
