4D-014-005S Dapol OO Gauge Class 29 6101 BR Two Tone Green FYE DCC Sound Fitted

The BR Class 29 is a type of Bo-Bo diesel-electric locomotive designed for both freight and passenger use. Although outwardly similar to the Class 22 they actually share no mechanical parts and in fact were a modified Class 21 with a replacement Paxman engine with improvements to power output. These modifications were carried out between 1963 and 1965 mainly at the Polmadie Traction & Rolling Stock Depot in Glasgow. After the rebuild the locomotives returned to Scottish duties until their withdrawal in 1971. No Class 29 locomotives survive preservation. Dapol have managed to provide for the Class 21 also in the tooling and this will be made concurrently with the Class 29.
