The Class 08 Diesel Shunter was BR’s most numerous diesel locomotive type (totalling more than 1,000 examples alongside its Class 09 and Class 10 counterparts) and models of this icon have long been a staple of the Bachmann Branchline range. However, this brand-new 08 owes nothing to its predecessors and finally brings the story of the humble diesel shunter right up to date with this most accurate of OO scale renditions.
Peco track uses durable and corrosion resistant nickel-silver rail for long lasting performance. Peco Setrack track sections are fully compatable with Hornby and Bachmann track and are supplied with fishplates already fitted at both ends, ready for attachment to other track sections.
Quad-length long straight track section, length 670mm (approx 26 3/8in).Equivalent to Hornby R603 long straight track section.
This quad-length straight track section is ideal for creating long straight tracks quickly, for example when assembling long sidings, platform tracks and storage yards. The rigid Setrack structure helps ensure that straight tracks are easy to keep straight.

This kit has been designed to allow a wide range of variations to be constructed. The warehouse can be built as a stand-alone building, or arranged in low-relief format.The kit includes a water tower, entrance building and a bridge unit to provide connection to other warehouses or factory buildings. Designed to complement the PN183 small factory kit which can be combined together to create a very effective scenic feature.
Four sheets of tarmac surfacing are supplied, allowing side platforms up to 8 feet in length or an island platform 5 feet long by 3 in width (actual platform length will depend on site/shape required.). Extra kits can easily be added to create larger stations.
Building height 255mm (10in) footprint 227mm x 100mm (approx 9in x 4in). Low relief up to 454mm x 50mm (approx 17¾in x 2in). Card kits are easy to cut and modify to suit a particular location.
There are 4 wall sections per kit - overall length 528mm

The standard points for most small/medium layouts, ST-240 (RH) and ST-241 (LH) points are compact, superior quality and drop in replacements for the Hornby equivalent. They can be easily motorised, either from above or below the baseboard with PL-10 under-track or PL-11 surface mounted point motors.
The two points supplied allow you to add sidings to your layout from the outset. Sidings let you shunt your trains, attach and detach wagons, or simply store one train while another train is running. The layout can be further expanded using Peco Setrack, or the similar sectional track from Hornby and Bachmann, all these ranges using the same rail and fishplate connectors.
A track plans book is supplied with the set, full of ideas and suggestions for interesting layouts. Base oval layout requires a space of 1626 x 991mm 64 x 39 inch.
No.1 radius at 14 5/8in is the sharpest radius available in the OO track range and the sharpest radius which smaller OO model trains can be expected to travel round without derailing. Note that many large models, including large steam and diesel locomotives, modern passenger coaches and long wagons will not successfully negotiate a curve this sharp. We recommend using small locomotives and traditional short 4-wheel wagons on no.1 radius circuits.Peco track uses durable and corrosion resistant nickel-silver rail for long lasting performance.
