Class 59/2 National Power Twin Pack First and Last 59201 & 59206 Diesel Locomotives

(Both Class 59s are Motorised)

N Gauge

All of the 59 models will feature the following standard features:
• Next generation heavy, diecast chassis with smooth running, low friction and low geared design
(estimated weight 110-115g)
• Highly detailed injection moulded body with photo-etched and wire details and separate plastic
parts
• Lift off, easy-access central body section (as per the prototype!) to allow access to the decoder
socket and switches
• Prototype body detail variations eg headlight differences, NRN pod locations, cab handrail recesses,
cab door handles, roof hatches, exhausts, and accurate chassis variation including variations in
cooler pipes, lashing loops and fire extinguishers
• Separate (not solid) angled struts connecting body to chassis to allow distinctive see-through
appearance of prototype
• Buffer beam detailing: one end super-detailed with solid air dam, air pipes and cosmetic coupler all
fitted. Alternative solid air dam supplied for coupler end, and open air dam for those wishing to
couple at both ends
• Working accurate headlights including working marker lights. Lights switchable using easy to access
microswitches or with DCC
• Next 18 NEM 652 socket and factory fitted speaker for easy sound fitting plus DCC sound fitted
option
• Fine wheels to NMRA RP25 standards
• Body-mounted, kinematic close couplers with NEM coupler sockets
The model will feature unique features not seen on a British N gauge model before.

The 59/2s saw variations from the 59/0s and 59/1s. The 59/2s retained the 59/1 style of headlights, but there were changes to the chassis and solebars which we have faithfully captured in our model:

• 59201: a bell at the number 1 end only
• all 59/2s: new handrails and door handles in different locations to 59/0s and 59/1s
• revised lashing loops on the solebars
• drop head knuckle couplers
• change to the cooling pipes and fire extinguisher arrangements (distinctive bright red extinguisher bottles as part of the solebar)

59201 – the first 59/2 with brass bell at number 1 end

59206 – the last 59 built
