Description
The Class 150/2 Diesel Multiple Units were characterised by the corridor connectors on the cab ends (as opposed to the flush ends of the 150/1s) and when first built the corridor doors had small windows, a feature not previously catered for on the Branchline model. However, following development of the tooling suite this feature can now be modelled authentically and is seen for the first time on this model of Class 150/2 No. 150247. Both vehicles that make up this two car unit are highly detailed on both the bodyshells and underframe, and the interiors are not overlooked either, all of which is enhanced by the exquisite livery application using authentic colours, graphics and logos. Powered by a five pole motor and with SOUND FITTED, you can enjoy the added dimension of realistic sound effects when operated on analogue control or DCC straight out of the box!
