{"product_id":"sentinel-steam-shunter-0-4-0-loco-post-ww2-version","title":"Sentinel Steam Shunter 0-4-0 loco - post-WW2 version","description":"\u003cp\u003eFollowing the Second World War, Sentinel introduced an improved version of its successful steam shunter. While retaining the compact layout and vertical-boiler principle of its predecessors, the new design featured revised bodywork, with the water tank and cylinders enclosed within a metal casing. Access hatches were incorporated into the body to make maintenance and servicing easier, while a variety of body styles were produced in greater numbers than before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese later Sentinels continued the qualities that had made the design so successful: a short wheelbase for tight industrial trackwork, rapid steam raising, good fuel economy and straightforward operation. Production continued until 1958, although many locomotives remained in industrial service for decades afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, the Sentinel steam shunter is well represented in preservation, with surviving examples found at heritage railways across Britain, including several still in working order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rapido Trains UK highly detailed OO Gauge Sentinel Steam Shunter 0-4-0 is available in both Pre-War and Post-War body types, and in a variety of colourful liveries. You can look forward to a smooth-running mechanism, NEM 362 coupler pockets, and an E24 decoder socket. This is in addition to a selection of optional details for you to personalise the model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the limited amount of space that the model's chassis offers, we have prioritised smooth running and have fitted a MoPower stay-alive capacitor to all versions. The Post-War versions have sufficient space, so in addition to the MoPower stay-alive capacitor, they will also feature a factory-installed speaker. These versions will be available in DCC-Ready and DCC Sound-Fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ready-to-run model in 00 gauge is produced by Rapido Trains UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiveries and body variants covering pre and post WW2 history.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly detailed diecast metal and injection-moulded construction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLots of separately fitted era-specific details.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth-running mechanism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitted with MoPower stay-alive and an E24 decoder socket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNEM 362 coupler pockets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:76 scale, 16.5mm (00) gauge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePersonalisation and Weathering\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWe can offer a weathering service on any pre-ordered models.
