YEAR INFORMATION
2001 The ubiquitous Class 08 has been seen in many different colour schemes since its introduction nearly fifty years ago, however, the Anglia Railways 08 must rank as being one of the most appealing. This livery has been expertly and precisely applied to the Hornby model and for a full appreciation of the decoration detail a magnifying glass must be employed. As with other Hornby 08 diesel shunters the model is fitted with a Type 7 motor located on an SSPP chassis.
