Class 37/0 (split Headcode) Railfreight ‘Red Stripe’ 37008 Diesel Locomotive – Weathered

The Heljan Class 37 is supplied on a wooden plinth to ensure it arrives in the best possible condition. However due to the arrangement of the underframe tanks and bogies, this is only possible by shipping with the fuel/water tanks detached. This can be detached once the plinth has been removed by using tank and screws supplied in one of the accessory bags provided.

In response to customer demand, this latest variant of Heljan’s O Scale Class 37/0 depicts the original 118 locomotives with split headcode panels and post-1970s cutaway bufferbeam cowlings. Our updated model features a number of improvements over earlier releases, including sharper detail, a plug-and-play DCC interface, switchable interior and exterior lighting and a wider choice of detail options. Models will be available with several nose end arrangements, with or without steam heating boiler ports, high-intensity headlights and with either cast or fabricated bogies according to livery and period. First releases will feature split headcode locomotives, but the later-built centre headcode version is also in development and will be released in a wide range of versions and liveries covering the 1970s through to the present day.
