Bachmann Branchline 32-215 Class 57xx Pannier tank 5775 in GWR Green. DCC Ready (8 pin)

The GWR 5700 Class, or 57xx class, was a class of 0-6-0 pannier tank steam locomotive, built by the Great Western Railway (GWR) and British Railways (BR) between 1929 and 1950. With 863 built, they were the most prolific class of the GWR, and one of the most numerous classes of British steam locomotive. Although officially designated by GWR as "light goods and shunting engines", they were also used for passenger working on branch, suburban, and shorter mainline journeys. They were distributed across most of the GWR network and, after nationalisation of the railways in 1948, across the British Railways Western Region, and also other regions. The 5700s were not as glamorous as the GWR Castles and Kings, but became just as much of an icon of the GWR.

This engine is in near Mint condition with little evidence of much running. It has been fully tested and is an excellent runner in both directions.

It comes in its original box along with the paperwork.​
