R30440TXS Hornby Railroad Class 47 Diesel Loco number 47 306 'The Sapper' - Railfreight Distribution (DCC Sound Fitted)

The R30440TXS Railfreight Distribution Class 47 Co-Co 47306 ‘The Sapper’ brings this iconic locomotive to life with DCC fitted digital sound.

Finished in authentic Railfreight Distribution livery, this model features separately fitted plastic buffers and NEM couplings for added realism and compatibility. Fitted with a 21-pin decoder, it delivers immersive, high-quality sound straight out of the box, making it an ideal centrepiece for any modern-era layout.

History

A total of 512 Brush Type 4s were built by Brush Traction at its Falcon Works in Loughborough, and by BR at its Crewe Works. This locomotive entered traffic as D1787 in 1964 at Tinsley and was used extensively on merry-go-round trains. 

It was renumbered 47306 in 1974 and became part of the EWS fleet inherited from BR in 1997, painted in BR Freightliner Distribution livery and named ‘The Sapper’. It finished its career at Bescot in February 1999 and, after a period in storage at St Blazey, moved to the Bodmin Railway for preservation in 2007, where it has been restored to full working condition.
