Bachmann 32-678A Class 45 Split Centre H/C D49 ‘The Manchester Regiment’ BR Green SYP

The popular Class 45 Diesel Locomotive returns to the Bachmann Branchline range with this OO scale model depicting No. D49 ‘The Manchester Regiment’. Together with the Class 44s and 46s the classes were commonly known as the ‘Peaks’, because the Class 44s had been named after mountains in England and Wales, however those Class 45s that were named were after British Army Regiments and the Royal Marines. No. D49 is one such named example, being named after the Manchester Regiment of the British Army.

The Bachmann Branchline model combines a finely-proportioned bodyshell with extensive detailing throughout, including separately fitted cab handrails, windscreen wipers, lamp brackets and sandpipes. With a powerful 5-pole motor fitted with twin flywheels which drives both bogies, these models have plenty of pulling power to haul even the longest trains. With a 21 Pin DCC decoder interface, it’s easy to add a decoder or sound decoder and speaker for use on DCC, or why not opt for one of our SOUND FITTED models and enjoy realistic running sounds straight out of the box.
