mick Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 BACHMANN 32-520 'DELTIC' EXCLUSIVE TO NRM From the limited issue release which included an enamel badge (third issue?) this is Bachmann's prototype 'Deltic', an exclusive to the National Railway Museum. In my opinion this is one of the best model locomotives yet released by any RTR manufacturer. Performance is exceptional, with the locomotive able to crawl along at very slow speed and with barely a sound from the motor or transmission. Appearance is also exceptional, making this a truly stunning locomotive. Why can't all model railway locomotives be as good as this? Deltic was photographed on the Selby Garden Railway on 5th August 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobby boy Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 That's quite a nice locomotive you have got there. How long have you had it? Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long have you had it?Andrew That particular issue I obtained about a year ago now I would think. The National Railway Museum released a number of issues of the prototype Deltic and I actually purchased two models from different releases. One of them will be in regular use on the Selby Garden Railway, the other has never been taken from its box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
