Brand new Accurascale AC2616 Class 37 37218 in Original DRS Heritage Repaint Livery Era 11 Dcc Ready OO Gauge BNIB. Cheepest Postage fully insured is £4.00.
The highlight of the Direct Rail Services' open day in 2022 was the official unveiling of 37218 in a 'heritage' livery backdating the centre headcode loco to its original DRS paint scheme with rectangular branding that it wore after departing Brush Traction, Loughborough in 2002. This was one of five Class 37/0s to be put through a major refurbishment in the early 2000s, which included extensive reworking to the nose ends with WIPAC light clusters, top headlight and DRS multiple working equipment as well as a full cab upgrade with new control desk and sound proofed partition to bring them up to an almost identical specification to the operator's Class 37/6 locos that featured heavily in the first Accurascale production run of class 37s. Although initially out shopped with plated headcode still extant this was removed on its repaint into the 'fade' colour scheme in 2014 and this model correctly features the smoothed off nose, toughened windscreens and welded long range fuel tank of the real thing at the time of the 2022 repaint.
