Heljan Class 28 (New Batch) - Arriving Soon!
We have received word from Heljan that the fresh batch of their popular OO Gauge Class 28s are due to be delivered to us next Wednesday (15th Nov)! The iconic "CoBo" will be available in four variations of BR green (with two weathered versions available). As with the previous batch, they certainly look the part and we look forward to getting them into stock next week.
Explore the four variations below and find links to pre-order them.
