A super-detailed Advanced Passenger Train in the offing from DJ Models Ltd will be the longest OO-gauge set ever produced at 14 cars and 14ft 6in long – and the accompanying 3D CAD/CAM images capture the attention to detail that will even encompass the correct tartan pattern for the seats.
This will be a one-off model production, and DJ’s Dave Jones expects a finished six-car APT CAD/CAM by the end of March, followed by the tooling soon afterwards.
Pre-orders are now being taken, and except for a few replacement models, the sets will be made strictly to order as a definite one-off production. The projected prices and details of other
DJ Models products can be found on the www.djmodels.co.uk website.
The APT will be only the second 100% crowdfunded OO-gauge mass-produced model train, and will give modellers the chance to get their hands on a really interesting piece of
railway history.
