Hornby Railways R3577 OO Gauge Sentinel Graham 0-4-0 Diesel Hydraulic Industrial Shunting Locomotive Red
Dimensions - Length 98mm
The large fleet of small industrial shunting engines has always lacked a good, detailed model. Hornby have made a good choice of prototype with this 4-wheel Sentinel diesel locomotive, a type which proved popular with industrial users, many large organizations operating sizable fleets.
Due to the consideration by the designers for ease of operation and safety for the crew Sentinels have remained in service until recent years, often only being replaced by newer locomotives from Sentinels' successors developed from the Sentinel design. Many Sentinels have since found new homes on heritage railways.
This model is DCC Ready. Hornby have a special 4-pin decoder unit for these models available from their customer care department. Tel. 01843 233525. The service sheet lists part X9659 for the decoder.
We regret that we are not able to supply the DCC decoder for this locomotive, Hornby Hobbies have declined to supply these to retailers.
