Dapol 7D-009-004 Class 121 W55023 BR Blue

 

The Class 121 "Bubble cars" form part of the first generation of DMUs produced by British Rail to operate on branch lines and secondary routes.

The Class 121 was built by Pressed Steel in 1960, 15 single power cars numbered W55020 to W55035 and 10 trailer cars numbered W56280 to W56289 were manufactured. Until recently there were still two 121’s in service and eight are preserved.

These great little models feature lots of details including etched grills, directional lighting, and finely printed external logos and numbering.

Features of this locomotive:
2 buffer types
Guards area with separate lighting
Separate grab handles on passenger doors
Exquisite passenger compartment detailing
Separate etched grills for guards windows
Dual motorised power bogies with all wheel pickup
Heavy Diecast chassis for added weight and superior tractive effort

Independently controllable cab, passenger compartment, guard compartment, and directional lighting—easy access switches for controlling lights in the DC model.
