“Good morning Ivor!”
Every railway enthusiast remembers the little green engine that lives in the top left-hand corner of Wales, so we are so excited to be making the first ever ready-to-run model of Ivor the Engine in OO Gauge!

Following the success of our ‘Titfield Thunderbolt’ range, Rapido set their sights on Ivor, with history coming full circle with a Kent-based model manufacturer bringing Ivor the Engine to life in model form.

Working alongside Daniel Postgate under an exclusive worldwide license, Rapido Trains UK will produce two Ivor the Engine packs in OO gauge:

-A brand-new Ivor the Engine story written by Daniel Postgate.
