Hornby RailRoad Colas Rail Class 66 790 Louise Diesel Locomotive

Hornby RailRoad brings a 1:76 scale British Rail Class 66 diesel-electric freight locomotive to model railway layouts, finished in Colas Rail company markings as 66 790 Louise. Built for analogue DC operation, it is ready-to-run and suited to UK-based scenes and collections.

The real Class 66 is a six-axle freight locomotive developed by Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD), a division of General Motors, and introduced in 1998 to meet the UK’s rail freight needs. The first major order came from English, Welsh / Scottish Railway (EWS) for 250 units, with production at EMD facilities in Canada and the United States and the first arrival in the UK in June 1998. Based on the EMD JT42CWR design, the Class 66 has since become a mainstay of British rail freight operations.
