Dapol is delighted to be able to share images of its latest Mogul Decorated samples with you

Prototype

It was with great pleasure that Dapol announced the second production run of the extremely popular GWR 43xx 2-6-0 Mogul at the World of Railways 2021 Virtual show.  The original production run featured locomotives with numbers starting 63xx and 73xx. The tooling suite is being expanded to allow us to increase the range of prototype models and their associated liveries that we can portray, locomotives with numbers starting from 4321 up to 5383 inclusive can now be accurately modelled. These models will include several developments to improve on what was already a fantastic model which we will discuss in more detail below.
