OO Manchester Ship Canal Peckett W4 "Jaffa" DCC Ready
Featuring:
Technical Specifications:
Perfect for: Industrial railway enthusiasts, shunting layouts, and OO gauge modellers seeking a compact locomotive with standout character and historical significance.
Why this kit matters
The Peckett W4 saddle tank was designed for heavy industrial work in docks, factories, and collieries throughout Britain. The Manchester Ship Canal Railway operated a fleet of these robust locomotives to move freight around one of the UK's most important industrial waterways.
Nicknamed "Jaffa" due to its bright orange livery, this locomotive has become a favourite among railway enthusiasts. Its compact size and eye-catching colour make it a distinctive addition to any industrial or dockside layout.
How to use it
This ready-to-run locomotive operates on standard OO gauge track using analogue DC control straight from the box. To run on a digital layout, fit a compatible DCC decoder into the factory-installed socket. Its short wheelbase and excellent low-speed control make it ideal for shunting wagons in tight industrial sidings.
This is a detailed scale model. It is not a toy.
