Rapido's GWR County No.1001 in GW Lined Green

Rapido has released a range of models in its GWR County Class 1000 series, one of which is the GWR No.1001 in GW Lined Green livery, fitted with DCC sound.

The model is designed for operation on OO gauge track, with a recommended minimum radius of 438mm for smooth running. The locomotive features a single chimney, parallel buffers and a highly detailed body with a museum-quality paint finish.

The model is powered by a smooth and powerful mechanism, with a 21-pin DCC decoder socket fitted as standard. This allows the model to be easily connected to a DCC system, and the MoPower stay-alive capacitors help to reduce the risk of decoder drop-out.

The sound system features two factory-fitted speakers, providing an authentic sound experience. The working dynamic firebox flicker adds an extra level of realism to the model, while the sprung buffers ensure smooth coupling and uncoupling.

The model is suitable for Era 3 modelling and features NEM coupler pockets for easy coupling to other rolling stock. The model is supplied in 1:76 scale, making it ideal for OO gauge layouts.
