YEAR INFORMATION
2001 The striking colour scheme of Anglia Railways is now a familiar sight on the main East Anglian routes out of London. Powerful 86's are the key locomotives used for the prestige passenger services. The 'University of East Anglia’ is one such locomotive, and is a suitable subject for this new Hornby model which is powered by a ringfield motor with pick-ups on each axle for smooth control at slow speeds.
