Showroom

New from Beyer-Peacock Works in 1964, D8607 was one of 117 centre-cab Type 1 engines built as part of British Railways' 1960's dieselisation programme. The class were mechanically unreliable, and much of their intended work vanished shortly after they were introduced. Heljan's 'Clayton' (item no. 1753) runs well and this example is presented in excellent condition with a factory-weathered finish.
