Hornby R30531 RailRoad Freightliner Class 66 Freightliner 60 66601 Railway Locos

• The Hornby Railroad Collection is carefully designed to be more durable, with little compromise on detail. Railroad is ideal for model railway beginners and keen collectors alike.
• First introduced in 1998, the Class 66 revolutionised the rail freight sector in Britain and have become the most prolific type for heavy freight work. In 2000, a new 66/6 sub-class was created with a lower gear ratio version enabling heavier trains to be hauled, albeit at slower speeds.
• A total of 25 were put into service by Freightliner, numbered 66601-625, and some of these have since moved overseas for use with Freightliner Poland. Used mainly on oil, aggregate, and cement trains, 66601 is one of 22 still operating in the UK and, on 18th March 2025, was turned out at Eastleigh Works in a new green ‘Freightliner 60’ livery.
• We've faithfully recreated this locomotive in RailRoad model form, keeping plenty of detail but incorporating more durable features, making it ideal for a busy model railway layout.
