37429 was allocated to the Railfreight Construction business sector. Painted in the Railfreight triple grey livery with construction chequer board logo 37429 would have been used on trains of aggregates, cement, bricks and other building materials, such as the Plasmor block trains.
Powered by a centrally mounted motor with flywheels in a diecast chassis drives two axles on each bogie through helical reduction gears. The bodyshell has been produced from completely new tooling designed by ex-Lima engineers. This shows every sign of being a top-notch model, combining the latest technology with decades of model manufacturing experience. Accurately reproduced tumblehome, bonnet shaping and end taper are complemented with flush glazing, etched windscreen wipers, etched roof fan grilles and finely moulded bodyside grille and panel detailing.
Remember Antics price includes UK delivery of your model locomotive.
37429 was rebuilt for passenger operations in Wales and as such was bestowed with the name for the annual festival of literature, music and performance. It is portrayed as running in the early 1990s when many of the sub-class were reallocated ti the freight business following the introduction of Sprinter multiple unit trains.
