Heads up railway enthusiasts, we have added new class 08, 20 and 58 locos to the clothing range. Each of these classes have endeared themselves to rail enthusiasts over the years.

Class 08 Shunter

The often overlooked Class 08 shunter was found all over the railway network quietly going about its business. There are still many of these little locos about on the mainline network and virtually every heritage railway has at least 1 if not more ‘gronk’ sitting quietly in a siding somewhere waiting to sort the coaches and wagons at the end of each operating day.

The humble Class 08 shunter is now available in BR Blue colour scheme –

EE Class 20

The English Electric Class 20 is a stalwart of the early Pilot Scheme diesel locos. 1st introduced in the late 1950s, the Class 20 locos can still be found in small numbers on the mainline today.

They are nearly always seen in pairs and are mostly remembered working the endless MGR merry go round trains between coal mines and power stations. Another big pull for Class 20 fans was the booked workings to Skegness, I dont think there would be many railway enthusiasts who havent made at least a couple of leaps from Nottingham to Beeston whilst raking in the ‘Skeggs’!

There are several Class 20s in preservation on heritage railways and are always popular with enthusiasts. The ever young Class 20 is now available in 3 colour schemes –

• BR Green
• BR Blue
• Red Stripe Railfreight

Class 58

The Class 58 loco was one of the final loco classes built by BREL and had a very similar early life working the MGR trains. Once sectorisation and then privatisation of British Rail occurred, life got quite interesting for the class. Sectorisation saw the class 58s dedicated to the Coal sector and privatisation brought a split between the newly formed freight companies EWS and Mainline Freight.

Things then took an unexpected turn when many were exported to France for work on building their High Speed Rail network (Dont mention HS2!!!!). After the high speed line construction work was completed, many were dumped in France and were only recently cut-up for scrap.

The mighty Class 58 is now available in 4 colour schemes –

• Original Red Stripe Railfreight
• Mainline Blue
• EWS
• Railfreight Coal Sector
