Bachmann Europe Plc today displayed at its Annual Trade Open Day its third Gauge 1 electrically powered locomotive, a Great Western Railway 57xx 0-6-0T.

A total of 863 locomotives were build between January 1929 and December 1950. The first was withdrawn in 1956 and the last ten years later, although a number entered service with London Transport until they ceased using steam locomotives in 1971. Sixteen locomotives have been preserved.

The Bachmann Brassworks Gauge 1 locomotives are now available in brass finish (BW1020) at 650.00 and in unlined painted black livery (BW1021) at 715.00. An unlined painted green version will be released later (BW1022).
