Hornby R30490 BR Rebuilt Merchant Navy - 35028 Clan line - Preserved - OO Gauge

Product Info

BR Rebuilt Merchany Navy 'Clan Line' is back in OO model form, featuring new tooling and a sleek green livery. This model locomotive has sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings and is a highly detailed replica of a popular steam engine.

One of the last of its class to be built, this locomotive was completed after nationalisation of Britain’s railways to Bulleid’s Southern ‘Merchant Navy’ design, complete with streamlined casing and chain-driven valve gear, entering service in December 1948. It didn’t receive its name until January 1951, during a ceremony at Southampton Docks.

Like all 30 members of the class, ‘Clan Line’ was rebuilt, in its case, during 1959, and remained in service until withdrawal from Nine Elms, London in July 1947. It was subsequently saved privately for preservation and is a regular main line performer, once hauling the prestigious Belmond British Pullman.

My online request was quite involved, but nothing was too much trouble and they were able to supply just what I wanted. Definitely the place to go if personal, human interaction is how you prefer to shop!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rainbow Railways is on my list for the shop that has the items I can’t get down south . So I do browse every now and again . Staff have been very helpful in the past with an order where I had to swap out a container for a similar one . That’s good service as I was notified back then before sending , this allowed me to pick one I recall - simple and job done for the container order . Now today fits the bill for finding the popular wagon , plus a couple more , had one in stock which sold out in my local region . I’ve also found on this site others in the past at great deals too . Can’t complain excellent service.

Ordering online or by phone makes the purchase of any stock item or new pre-order item very easy. Fitting service available for decoders and speakers etc from various suppliers. Highly recommended with excellent staff and every visit is enjoyable and fun, as it should be.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very well priced, quick to dispatch and that's backed up by knowledgeable and service-focused people. When I had a small problem with one of my models (not their fault, rare manufacturer issue) they went above and beyond to get it sorted. Definitely one of the local model railway shops we should be supporting, both in person and online. Recommended without hesitation.
