Hunslet Austerity - Steam-Outline electric + Click image to enlarge


   

The Hunslet Engine Company Austerity locomotives were built at the outbreak of the second world war. These were intended for general shunting duties, with a total of 485 constructed. They were a very modern design, and built with simple features to keep costs and maintenance down. As a result, 70 are still preserved.

As an electric locomotive, you get great power at-hand, with extremely low maintenance! Available in 7.25" gauge, these locomotives are a great size striking the balance between portability and heavy haulage. With a 2kw 48v power system, this loco will haul four loaded 7.25" gauge carriages on most tracks.

  • Key operated disable switch
