The third class 66 to land on British soil back in 1998, 66004 was treated to its eye catching ‘Climate Hero’ livery during 2021 as part of a program to promote freight on rail by owners DB. The real 66004 runs on a diet of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, living up to its ‘climate hero’ credentials.

Our Class 66 model is based on the award winning ‘accura-standard’ platform, with all-wheel powered six-axle bogies, a powerful twin flywheel fitted motor and market leading electronics package.

A faultless 66

Took just over a week to arrive and was well packaged. Detail is great, livery is wonderful, and it runs extremely well. No noise at all with the sound off, and with the sound on ... how do they pack so much sound into such a small space?
