Prototype information

The Rapido Diagram O18 is a OO gauge model of the Rhymney Railway's No.295 locomotive. The model represents the Rhymney Railway in its pre-grouping era. It is part of the Rapido GWR O18 collection.

The Rapido Diagram O18 is an unfitted open locomotive, meaning it does not have a tender. It features a Rhymney Railway grey livery and spoked wheels. The model is designed to allow the modeller to attach the optional sheet rail in either operational or stowed position.

The locomotive's wheels are mounted in metal bearings, providing a smooth running experience. The model features a high level of detail, both above and below the floor line. It also includes NEM coupler pockets, allowing for easy coupling and uncoupling of the model.

The Rapido Diagram O18 is designed to a scale of 1:76, which is the standard for OO gauge models. The model is UK-designed and manufactured, making it suitable for modellers of British railway layouts.
