It comes DCC-ready with a 21-pin plug, so you can upgrade it to run on DCC or with our HM7000 Bluetooth-controlled system, which also includes sound via a speaker inside the locomotive.Introduced by BR in 1963, what is now known as the Class 73 is an electro-diesel locomotive, also referred to as an ED. As well as operating on the Southern Regions 650-750v DC third-rail network, these locomotives have a 600hp diesel engine, allowing them to work over non-electrified routes and into sidings and yards where there isnt a third rail power source. From new, all 49 locomotives were fitted for push-pull working with Southern Region multiple units. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e SAFETY WARNING \u003cbr\u003e Detailed scale model.
