N Gauge | FULL 11-CAR TRAIN SET
An impressive complete Dapol N Gauge Class 43 HST in Blue Pullman livery, supplied as a full train formation comprising:

Catalogue number 2D-019-300, this is a substantial complete HST set and an eye-catching centrepiece for an N Gauge collection or layout.
The Class 43 HST
The British Rail Class 43 High Speed Train became one of the most successful and recognisable designs in British railway history.
Developed during the 1970s, the HST transformed long-distance passenger services, combining high-speed performance with a design that would remain in front-line service for decades.
The distinctive streamlined power cars at either end of the formation made the HST an instantly recognisable part of Britain's railway network.
The Model
Dapol's N Gauge Class 43 captures the distinctive appearance of the prototype in a compact but highly detailed model.
This particular release is especially impressive as it provides the complete Blue Pullman train, rather than simply a pair of power cars or an individual coach pack.
Full Train Formation
This set consists of:
- 2 x Class 43 HST Power Cars
- 9 x HST Coaches
- 11 vehicles in total
This allows the complete train to be displayed or operated without having to source the individual matching coaches separately.
