Bachmann 32-115B Class 08 numbered 08818 in BR Blue weathered with Wasp Stripes. DCC Ready (8pin)

The Class 08 is one of the most numerous BR locomotive classes, with close to 1000 being produced between 1952 and 1962 at Crewe, Darlington, Doncaster and elsewhere. Over time, they became the standard shunter across the network and were an extremely common sight at stations and freight yards until the 1990s. The introduction of fixed wagon rakes and increase in the use of multiple units meant there was less need for shunters, so many were scrapped or sent overseas. More than 70 Class 08s have made it into preservation - making it one of the most numerous preserved locos in the UK!

This model is in very good condition with no blemishes or marks, it is weathered as supplied by Bachmann.; It has been fully tested and had a light service.
