422 Class NSW Diesel production update.

Sorry about the delay in following you all up regarding the 422 class loco.  We have an update since the Goulburn Show.  The production has begun!  The 422s are estimated to arrive in Australia in November.  The cost is estimated to be $295 per loco depending on the USD exchange rate for final payments.

I want to thank all of you who have expressed interest and pre ordered the 422 class. You will be notified via email of further details as they come to hand.

All you have to do to pre order one is to send me an enquiry on the Gopher Models website and your name will be included on the list and you will be the first notified when they arrive.

Images here are painted production samples. Changes may be made to ensure accuracy prior to final production approval.

The Gopher 422 class is the culmination of many years of developing Australian N Scale ready to run products. This model represents a number of firsts in the Australian N scale industry!

• First diesel equipped with a coreless motor
• First model fitted with an E24 DCC socket
• First diesel equipped with stay alive in all models
• First diesel with all lighting separately controllable
• First diesel with a very large speaker enclosure for 15x11mm speaker fitted to all models
