Graham Farish 371-359SF N Gauge Class 60 60100'Midland Railway - Butterley' DB Cargo DCC Sound. The British Rail Class 60 is a Class of Diesel-Electric Locomotive built by Brush Traction in Loughborough, Leicestershire between 1989 and 1993. Affectionately known as Tugs by enthusiasts due to their Mirrlees marine-derived powerplant, 100 locomotives were built and the first entered service in late-1990 - more than a year after the first example had been ceremoniously handed over to BR - after various technical issues were uncovered during testing of the first locos. However, a number of locomotives were retained as the heaviest trains could not be hauled by a single Class 66 and instead required the superior power of a Class 60. EWS was acquired by DB Schenker in 2007 (later renamed DB Cargo) and the new owners put several Class 60s up for sale, however they also announced overhauls for some 60s, giving the class glimmers of hopes for the future. 60002 that was named #Graham Farish # 50th Anniversary 1970 # 2020# to mark 50th anniversary of production of British N scale models by the brand which is now owned by Bachmann Europe.
