NR Class Diesel Loco
Update - 1-July-2010 - Indian Pacific liveried NR26 & NR27 - SOLD OUT
Update - 2-June-2010:After a false start late in 2008 we have now received permission from Great Southern Railway to do the ‘Southern Spirit’ livery on the NR class. Production is underway and should be finished end July 2010. 1200 pieces only of the Southern Spirit will be made as a Limited Edition. This will be a guaranteed one off run only. Each model will be certificated. If you order more than one model you will receive consecutively numbered certificates. If you want a specific number between 1and 1200 please ask but we can’t guarantee it. Nos 1 & 1200 have already gone. So have nos. 84 & 85 ( very popular ). Sorry.
At the same time we are rerunning the
Pac. Nat NR with Stars in two new numbers. NR 1 and NR 54.
During early March the two Southern Spirit livery NR class have been fitted with name plates. The two locos
are now named :-
NR 84 ‘Southern Cross’
NR 85 ‘Southern Spirit’
Shipment will be mid August. As with all reruns no deposit is required, just an advance order. Credit cards will
not be debited or cheques banked until the models are ready for delivery. The new retail price remains at
$275.00.

The cost of the modifications has been very high but we had hoped to hold the retail price at $245.00. Unfortunately recent factory price rises have put the kybosh on that. The new retail price will be $275.00 and that is cutting our margin substantially.
