R30333 * Hornby Class 67 Diesel 67 007 Queen's Jubilee

New release - pre-orders invited - expected Winter 2024-25. preauthkernow

The Class 67's was constructed by Alstom Meinfesa in Valencia between 1999 and 2000 for EWS. No. 67007 is operated by DB Cargo UK. The Class 67 locomotive was painted in a Queen's Platinum Jubilee Purple and White livery with the legend “Celebrating Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee 1952-2022” in 2022. This livery was presented by DB Cargo at the 2022 Toton Depot Open Day on 18 June. In the same month of 2022, a notable journey was made where 67007 hauled the Royal Train with No. 67006 at the rear. The locomotive ran from Wolverton to Windsor to pick up the Royal Family and transported them to their destination of Edinburgh and then travelled south back to Wolverton. Our model retains a royal DB Cargo Purple livery with an added Celebrating Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee legend, just like on the prototypical Class 67 locomotive. Special Platinum Jubilee logos adorn the bodysides. 'Queen's Jubilee' features a 5 pole skew wound motor. This model is DCC ready and is compatible with our HM7000 21-Pin decoder.
