Specifications

General

General SpecificationThis locomotive was developed using many original GA drawings to ensure a high level of accuracy of these models. Due to the tiny size of the model, many of the larger components are diecast to ensure the locomotive weighs as much as possible. In addition to this, the centre driving wheels will be sprung, and the coreless motor is fitted with a flywheel to help overcome dead frogs while performing shunting duties
