Class 55 / Type 5 Detailed Napier Deltic Type Power Unit (one)
O Gauge
Pack includes:- one unpainted Class 55 Deltic power unit.
Class 55 locomotives are fitted with two 18 cylinder Napier Deltic D18-25 type power units each rated at 1,650bhp and coupled to an English Electric generator.
This detailed model of one Class 55 power unit is intended to be used in depot/workshop or scrapyard scenes on your layout.
This model is supplied unpainted, on the print sprue, and will need to be carefully removed by using fine Sprue Cutters. Once removed from the sprue a light coat of primer is recommended before painting as desired to suit your layout.
Note:- since the Deltics were built there have been many minor variations in the power units; this model represents a 'typical' power unit and generator of the type fitted to Class 55 Deltic locomotives.
Overall Length approx. 10.5cm
Amazing!!
Just browsing this site and can not believe that there is not a single review of this diesel power unit. I purchased mine some time ago and took great delight in carefully removing the spruces and exposing the exquisite detail. I have yet to find the time to paint the details but they are perfect in every way. I know 3D printing is the accepted thing nowadays but it is easy to overlook the hours of work in measuring, researching and putting this much detail into a computer CAD system. It is perfect in every detail! Brilliant piece of craftsmanship. I also purchased the class 37 power unit which is also exemplary of the best of 3D printing.
