British Railway Announcements | Autumn 2020
We’re delighted to share with you news of the new products that will be arriving with Bachmann stockists during Autumn 2020.

In N scale the Graham Farish range sees the addition of a further West Highland Line BR Mk1 Coach Pack allowing modellers to form an authentic train pack when combined with the forthcoming twin pack (374-993). We also see the addition of a Mk1 BCK in InterCity Charter livery complete with white roof.
N scale items lead the way from Scenecraft too, with the addition of a series of Industrial Buildings, two new Engine Sheds and several smaller items such as a Boiler House Chimney, Loco Lifting Jacks and Roadside Rescue Boxes.

Concluding our Autumn 2020 Announcements is the unveiling of our all-new brand – EFE Rail – led by a new motorised version of the popular EFE 1:76 scale (OO) London Underground Tube Train. This much requested model is joined by a number of other Great British Model Railways to complete the launch range for EFE Rail.

With a rich heritage in supporting traditional model and hobby shops, the launch of EFE Rail further reinforces our commitment to Bachmann stockists in giving them access to many products that they otherwise would not have been able to stock. The initial range includes numerous OO and N scale locomotives and wagons which have been produced in collaboration with third parties, such as Kernow Model Rail Centre and Heljan, to make these products accessible via Bachmann Europe Stockists for the first time.
Alongside the Tube Train in OO scale we are also proud to announce the J94 0-6-0 Saddle Tank, Class 35 ‘Hymek’ Diesel Locomotive and JIA and PBA Bogie Wagons. N scale modellers can look forward to the Class 17 ‘Clayton’ Diesel Locomotive and 14T Mermaid Ballast Wagon.
