About the British Rail Class 23

The British Rail Class 23, commonly known as the Baby Deltic, was a small class of ten diesel-electric locomotives built by English Electric in 1959.

Powered by a compact Napier Deltic engine, the locomotives were primarily associated with services on the Eastern Region, particularly routes from London King's Cross.

Their distinctive appearance and relatively short working lives make them an interesting addition to layouts depicting the early British Rail diesel era.

Packaging and Important Information

The locomotive is supplied in its Heljan box, which shows marks from storage and shelf wear.

Additional detailing has been fitted to the locomotive.

No coupling hooks are included.

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.
