Network Rail JCB Fastrack -  OO Scale (see scaling details below)

Network Rail - JCB Fastrac

Network Rail - JCB Fastrac

This is a code 3 model, modified and finished to a high standard that is ideal for general use on any modern image model railway layout.

These JCB's are used by Network Rail to work on track repair/construction on the UK rail network and around the depots and yards as their multi tasking ability, agility and speed make them very favourable tractor units.

JCB make several different sizes of their Fastrac range to suit differing requirements from this agile tractor unit, and using the variation of the sizes available, this model is exactly scale-able to OO for model railway use.

Scaling

For those of you concerned with scale, This is 1/87 scale JCB 8250 that fits well on a 1/76 layout as a JCB 3230 Fastrac (the near identical but smaller brother model) as the images show straddling the OO scale tracks.

Based upon the dimensions given on the JCB website this Fastrac is actually is 2300mm so
7 feet 9 inches wide, which if you multiply by 4 (4mm = 1 foot OO scale) that is 31mm and compared to the actual model cab width which is 31 mm wide, it is spot on OO scale!

The same scale calculations above can be applied to this JCB model all round, length, height etc, so what we have here is a JCB Fastrac that is indeed OO scale as a 3230 model.

To qualify the above statement, take a look at the specifications from JCB by clicking and opening the image to the right:

This model looks superb and very realistic on any modern OO/HO Railway as a trackside feature or parked up in your depot or perhaps near or beside the tracks.

• Network Rail quality decals fitted to the engine bonet one either side.

• Network Rail quality decal fitted to rear of the cab beneath the glass.

Only one Network Rail JCB Fastrac (generally in the centre of image) is included, all other scenery, people, track, locomotives, trucks, plant, vehicles etc shown in the pictures are NOT included.

This JCB Fastrac model is just £12.30 (+ £2.60 P&P) whilst stocks last

Due to the modifications made to this model, the number of small parts, and general delicate construction of the code 3 parts, this model is Not recommended as a toy for children. It is purely for use as a scenic feature for a model railway under adult supervision.
