Bachmann 32-993A Wickham Type 27 Trolley Car BR Departmental Yellow (Wasp Stripes) - OO Gauge

Description Bachmann 32-993A Wickham Type 27 Trolley Car BR Departmental Yellow (Wasp Stripes) - OO Gauge The Wickham Trolley is undoubtedly the smallest powered model that can be found in the Bachmann Branchline OO Scale range yet still, this impressive model still packs a punch with a high level of detail and a smooth drive mechanism making this a striking addition to any OO collection. The Branchline model combines the trolley car, with its open cabin and seating for several personnel, with a trailer and it is here that the motor and mechanism is located, cleverly concealed by a ballast/spoil load. The trailer also sports a diecast metal chassis, with separate metal bearings fitted to the two axles and the gearing from the coreless motor to the driving axle is housed in a diecast metal gearbox. The driven wheelset is also fitted with traction tyres for assured running from this diminutive model. The semi-permanent coupling between the trolley and trailer allows electrical connections to be carried between the two, so that all eight wheels of the model can be equipped with pickups. With its wheels on full show, it’s easy to see that these have been replicated faithfully with the correct pattern and profile and brakes are added separately too. Meanwhile the trolley car itself has glazed windscreens with a separate windscreen wiper, headlights at the front and rear (non-functional), and a representation of the sheeting (that would have supposedly provided riders with protection from inclement weather!) rolled up and stowed along the roof edge.   MODEL FEATURES: Bachmann Branchline OO Scale Era 7 Pristine BR Departmental Yellow (Wasp Stripes) Livery Running No. DB965950 with Trailer No. DB965954 / Plant No. 68/006 Coreless Motor Length 76mm
