This Bachmann Branchline steam locomotive, model number 32-550b, is a beautifully crafted replica of the Class A1 Tornado 60163 in British Rail green early emblem livery. It has a 4-6-2 wheel configuration and is DCC-ready with a 21-pin socket.
The locomotive is a perfect addition to any model railway, especially those in the OO gauge. The Tornado was newly built after steam ended, making it a unique piece of railway history. It comes with a tender and its exquisite green colour adds to its authenticity. This steam locomotive is sure to impress railway enthusiasts and collectors alike. I have tested it here and it operates as it should do. It has a detail pack, instructions, and etched nameplates [in box waiting to be fitted].
