British Rail Class 59
British Rail Class 59
The Class 59 is the first locomotive built by EMD for British Rail. Only 15 were produced, but they were very influential. They were the first foreign locos to run in Britain and they were the precursor to Class 66. They have wheel creep control, which gives them nearly double the tractive effort of a Class 56. They are all still in service.
The model is available from 1986. It’s a genuine article, not just a Class 66 in Class 59 liveries. Every loco in the class is modeled, 59003 more than once.
