The 55H Standard Class 5

We don’t normally stock new products from other manufacturers. But once in a blue moon, something crops up that just fits with our aesthetic…and so we break our little rule.

55H Models’ BR Class 5MT is one such thing. The ‘Standard 5s’ were almost as well travelled as our own Black 5s and are as comfortable with a rake of express passenger coaches as they are trundling around with a grotty old goods. 

There’s nothing grotty about the 55H model, though (unless you want it that way, in which case we’ll happily add some expert grime!). It’s a stunner: all-brass construction, smooth-as-butter mechanism, and superlative details. This is an engine that exudes refinement. We like refinement. So now you can get them directly from us.

Alongside customisation, you can also have 10% off your Standard 5 order if you get one with three or more MK1 Suburbans...or 5% off with a trio of Presflos.

55H make very limited quantities of the engines on their roster. It’s likely they won’t make any more Standard 5s. Before that happens, get yours now by heading here!
