00 Diesels & Electrics: Tri-ang Hornby R253 red Dock Authority diesel shunter

A 1960s production Tri-ang Hornby R253 red Dock Authority diesel shunter, good runner with light, in good condition but needs a clean, supplied in the original box. Please note this loco needs a controller capable of delivering at least 600mA to run well, and doesn't like new Hornby or Peco points as it has deep flanged knurled wheels.

00 gauge

Price: £35
