Why this model matters

The Class 37 remains one of the most versatile diesel locomotives in UK rail history. In Loram engineering livery, 37418 represents specialist infrastructure and maintenance work, reflecting the modern role of heritage locomotives adapted for rail maintenance services across the UK network. It is especially suited for contemporary OO layouts featuring engineering trains and depot operations.

How to use it

Place the locomotive on clean OO gauge track and operate using a DCC controller to unlock full sound functionality. Ensure correct decoder addressing and maintain clean wheels and track for best performance. No assembly, paint, glue, or modelling tools are required.

This is a ready-to-run DCC sound fitted OO scale locomotive. Paint, glue, and modelling tools are not required. It is not a toy.
