Bachmann 32-862 – BR Standard 9F Class (Tyne Dock) 92060 BR Black Late Crest (Weathered). The Tyne Dock 9Fs were some of the most powerful steam locomotives to have run in Britain and now these impressive locomotives are reproduced in OO scale for the first time. Taking the award winning Branchline 9F as our basis, new tooling has been produced to accurately model the ten locomotives that were fitted with Westinghouse Air Pumps and sent to Tyne Dock. Sporting a Plux22 DCC interface and pre-fitted speaker just like our standard 9Fs, this Tyne Dock example is a fitting tribute to one of BR’s most successful standard designs. The Tyne Dock 9Fs would see just ten years of service before their withdrawal and the locomotive depicted by this Bachmann Branchline model, No. 92060, is presented in a typically weathered, work stained condition befitting the fleet. The Branchline OO scale BR Standard Class 9F locomotive is an imposing model and with its high fidelity, exquisite detailing and powerful performance, it forms the perfect basis for our new Tyne Dock models. With an impressive weight and a presence befitting the strongest of BR’s standard steam locomotive classes, the Branchline 9F is a fine choice to haul prototypical trains on your model railway. Thanks to the Plux22 decoder socket and pre-fitted speaker, you can easily fit sound to this model or, choose our SOUND FITTED model to enjoy sound straight from the box.

Of the 251-strong fleet, ten locomotives were modified from the standard design and were fitted with Westinghouse Air Pumps. Entering traffic in 1956, these ten locos were sent to Tyne Dock in northeast England and were employed on iron ore trains between Tyne Dock and the Consett iron works. Along with the modified 9Fs, 56 ton bogie wagons had been built specifically for this service and these had air operated doors which allowed for quick unloading at Consett – it was these doors that the Westinghouse Air pumps operated. The’Tyne Dock’ 9Fs lasted in service for ten years before the final train was hauled in November 1966 by No. 92063 carrying a’Tyne Docker’ headboard. Despite the first 9Fs being withdrawn in 1964 and the Tyne Dock examples all having gone by 1966, some 9Fs continued in traffic until the final months of steam on British Rail and the last was withdrawn in June 1968.
