Operating F20 turns off Nose End Lighting, Rear Loco Horns dispatch whistle on leading loco, driver acknowledgement on rear Loco.
On our Multiple Class 20 you get 2 defined Loco Start ups and engine revs and not stereo sound.

• *Flange Squeal only operates at low speed turns off over 15mph

• ** A Loco can’t have Tails light lit when coupled to other vehicles this includes another Loco, wagons, coaches & brake vans. This was a punishable offence for the Driver on Main Line operation. Intermediate Tails lights on trains had a Special Bell Code for Signalman as this was termed as 2 Trains in 1 Section a sackable offence for the Signalman. 
This how serious this was in Railway Times right up to Power Signal Boxes taking over by using Track Circuit Block Signalling (TCB). 
This took away from most signalman to observe EVERY train had passed with Tail Light lit. Imagine a train becoming divided in a section then passing the Signal box the signalman saw the Tail Light of the Loco and allowed another train into this section with another part of the train still in the section. All retailers have always overlooked this apart from Bachmann having a flirt with switches under some chassis.

Olivia's Trains V4 DCC Sound Fitted

THIS LOCOMOTIVE IS FITTED WITH OLIVIA'S TRAINS V4 DCC SOUND.

Unlike a standard DCC Ready model, this example has already been fitted with a digital sound installation.

The Olivia's Trains V4 sound system is intended to recreate the characteristic sounds associated with a Class 20 diesel locomotive.

Depending on the installed sound project and decoder configuration, sound functions may include engine starting, idling, acceleration, braking, horns and other railway operating effects.

The precise function assignments and individual sound effects have not been supplied, so customers should not assume a particular function mapping.

DCC Sound Information:

Feature Status
DCC Sound Decoder Fitted
Sound Version Olivia's Trains V4
DCC Running Test Runs OK
Current Address 8
Cab Headcode Lights Fitted
Individual Sound Functions Not separately specified

The locomotive has been tested on DCC and confirmed to run OK. Individual sound functions and lighting operation have not been separately confirmed in the supplied test notes.

Important – DCC Address Set to 8

THE CURRENT DCC ADDRESS IS SET TO 8.

Customers using a DCC controller should select locomotive address 8 to operate the model in its current configuration.

This is different from the common factory default address of 3.

The address can normally be changed using a compatible DCC controller and the appropriate programming procedure.

Customers should ensure that their DCC system is configured correctly before operating the locomotive.

Cab Headcode Lights

This locomotive is specified as being fitted with cab headcode lights.

These add an additional visual feature to the model and are particularly appropriate for recreating the appearance of British diesel locomotives.

The headcode lighting installation is listed as part of the model's specification.

However, the supplied test information confirms DCC running performance only; it does not separately confirm the operation of the lighting functions.

Factory Weathered Finish

This Bachmann Class 20 features a factory-applied weathered finish.

Weathering gives the locomotive the appearance of a machine that has seen regular railway service rather than a freshly painted example.

This finish is particularly suitable for the Class 20, a locomotive type closely associated with demanding freight and industrial duties.

A weathered locomotive can be especially effective when operating alongside similarly weathered freight wagons, mineral stock and industrial railway scenery.

The factory weathered finish makes this example particularly attractive for modellers seeking a realistic working appearance without needing to weather the locomotive themselves.

Important – No Detailing Pack and One Coupling Hook

PLEASE NOTE: NO DETAILING PACK IS SUPPLIED, AND ONLY ONE COUPLING HOOK IS INCLUDED.

The original loose detailing accessories are not included with this preowned locomotive.

Only one coupling hook is supplied.

Customers intending to use the locomotive for regular train operation should check whether an additional coupling hook is required for their intended arrangement.

The locomotive has nevertheless been tested on DCC and confirmed to run OK.

No other loose accessories are guaranteed unless specifically confirmed.

Locomotive Tested – 10 October 2026

This Bachmann Class 20 was tested on 10 October 2026.

Running Test Result: TESTED ON DCC – RUNS OK

The locomotive was operated using DCC control and confirmed to run OK.

The model is fitted with Olivia's Trains V4 DCC sound, and its current address is set to 8.

The test notes do not separately document individual sound functions or headcode lighting operation.

The locomotive is being sold in its current preowned condition.

Never had shopped before with Rainbow Railways (on-line), but they had the product I wanted, which I found with them through Google. Quick shipping and incredibly well packed (took a bit of time to unpack). As I ordered twice within a few hours, on request they refunded me postage of one order without a problem. Next time I will have a look at RR when shopping for model trains, got a good feeling from this experience.

Good price, good packaging, good delivery. But, very difficult to place and pay for order. Left item in basket for a couple of days before I could actually place and pay for order. Thought I was being scammed as I had entered my credit card and Paypal details on the order. Never had this problem before with other suppliers when placing an order. Be aware.
