New to 32A Norwich Thorpe in January 1960, it moved to 32B Ipswich just over a year later and then to 30A Stratford 12 months after that, before settling at 31B March in June 1962. With competition from English Electric Type 3s the uprated 1,365hp Mirrlees-powered ˜Class 30s™ could still be found on express trains, but were more likely to be rostered on secondary passenger and freight services during this period. Following the major rationalisation of the East Anglian railway network it joined the exodus of motive power from the region, moving to 41A Tinsley in January 1966 via a stop off at the ˜Plant™ (Doncaster Works) to receive its EE 12SVT upgrade. It was renumbered 31163 in February 1974 when allocated to Leeds Holbeck before it became part of the second wave of Class 31s to migrate to the Western Region to replace withdrawn diesel hydraulics in 1976. After a long career it was eventually stored at Immingham in January 1999 and was sold to the Colne Valley Diesel Group for preservation. However before it moved to their home railway it was sold on to the Chinnor \u0026amp; Princes Risborough where it is still based and currently wears the attractive Derby RTC livery with the fictitious number 97205 as inspired by the real research department allocated Class 31 97204 which was scrapped in March 1997. Unfortunately it was involved in a collision in 2022 and it is still undergoing repair at Nemesis Rail, Burton-upon-Trent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eCLASS 31 Common Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eHighly-detailed OO gauge model, 1:76.2 scale on 16.5mm track\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eMinimum Radius 438mm (2nd Radius Set-track)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eHeavy Die-cast metal chassis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eOne truck (bogie) styles with separate footsteps, brake cylinders, speed recorder and end brake rigging\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eRP25-110 profile OO gauge wheels\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eBrake blocks on bogies in line with wheels\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eScale width wire handrails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eEtched metal\/plastic detail parts, incl. grab handles, steps, wipers, etc.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eEtched metal roof grille\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eEtched metal pre-painted nameplates, plaques and arrows (if applicable)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eAccurate high-fidelity miniature snowploughs, chassis fitted\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eFull underbody battery box\/air tank detail with pipework\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eExtra cab front details for Network Rail locomotives\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eFully sprung buffers, multiple pipework variations and screw couplings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eKinetic NEM coupler mounts at correct height with mini-tension-lock couplers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eDeluxe Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e  \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"\"\u003eAll models feature a fully working, scale speed roof fan, that will run on DC and DCC.
