CLASS 86

Railfreight Sectors: General, Distribution Models Available: Heljan

George’s suggested upgrade: Upgrade Heljan’s clunky pantograph for a Sommerfeldt unit or a fine brass kit from Hurst Models. Ben’s suggested upgrade: This is one of Dapol’s better efforts. Early releases had a basic pantograph which can be improved with the addition of the component developed for the later model - it’s available as a spare part.
