Hornby Railways RailRoad Plus BR, Class 40, 1Co-Co1, D210 'Empress of Britain'
£96.99
The Hornby RailRoad Plus BR, Class 40, 1Co-Co1, D210 'Empress of Britain' - Era 6 in the range of Diesel Locomotives accurately recreates the real life locomotive.
British Railways originally ordered ten Class 40s, then known as "English Electric Type 4s", as evaluation prototypes. They were to be used as replacements for steam locomotives, usually hauling passenger services. The prototypes were successful enough to warrant a further 190 production models.
It was initially worried that the locomotives lacked the power needed to maintain the speeds required on express services and as a result the capability to run in multiple was considered a main design feature. This resulted in the inclusion of small gangways at each end of the first 145 units.
