Hornby R30544 RailRoad Rail Services Class 37 Pegasus 37422 - OO Gauge
The unmistakable “Irn-Bru” Class 37 has arrived in OO Gauge with Hornby’s striking RailRoad release of 37422 “Pegasus” in Rail Services / Swietelsky colours. Carrying the bold orange and blue livery that has quickly earned the locomotive its unofficial “Irn-Bru” nickname amongst enthusiasts, this eye-catching Class 37 is guaranteed to stand out on any modern image layout.
Built at Vulcan Foundry in 1965 as D6966, the locomotive later became 37422 under TOPS and has enjoyed a long and varied career across the UK rail network. Now operating for Rail Services, the locomotive received the name “Pegasus” and one of the most talked-about liveries currently on the rails. Hornby’s RailRoad model offers excellent value with robust tooling, smooth running characteristics and a 21-pin DCC-ready socket for easy digital conversion.
The “Irn-Bru” comparison feels especially fitting for us here at Rainbow Railways too, as the famous Scottish soft drink was first developed in Falkirk in 1901 — only a short distance from our homeland in Central Scotland. With its vivid orange tones and Scottish connection, 37422 has already become something of a modern cult favourite with diesel enthusiasts north and south of the border alike.
