B.R style "08" Class Diesel Shunter. Body is made up from layers of plasticard, some roof parts are aluminium and brass. Chassis is mixture of brass and plasticard. Wheels have metal tyres, flangeless centre driver and plastic middles and have holes rather than spokes (similar to some that had boxpox wheels!) motor is Como 50:1 epicyclic gearbox, with fosworks r.c  inc cobra speed controller. 12v lead acid battery. The top of the roof comes off for turning on and off, the cab and main body sits snugly over locating strips on the chassis. Gears are brass bevel style and meshing via a mount 3D printed by Venturer Models. It goes slow or slower! just like the real thing. Superb one off model.
