2008 Special Release

 

Brawa have announced the S9 Class / BR 14 Steam Loco as their first new item for 2008.
These high speed locomotives ran in Germany, Belgium and France from 1908 up until the second world war. With a maximum speed of 200 km/h and capable of long-distance journeys of over 250 km, it is also considered to be one of the most beautiful Prussian locomotives of all time.

Brawa’s models are just as appealing as the originals, and they incorporate a whole host of precision details such as accurately replicated paintwork and true-to-epoch lighting. The boiler, chassis, gangplank, tender box and spoked wheels are also precision made in die-cast zinc, and the locomotives have doors that open and close. 
The two version available are the S9 Landerbahn in green and the black DRG BR 14.

A deposit of $200 is required.

HELJAN
Fully Operational Container Crane

Combining a full range of prototype movement, smooth operation, easy assembly, DCC-compatibility and modular design, this incredible working HO Scale model opens new areas for realistic modelling and operations.
 
For the first time, you can actually load and unload intermodal trains like the prototype. As trains arrive, the crane lights can be turned on, the unit moved alongside each car, the lifting trolley extended, turned and lowered, and containers moved to and from road, rail or ship - all with the touch of a few buttons. Powered by small, rugged motors mounted right inside the model and a precision drive system like those found in today's finest model locomotives, the crane responds to the controls as smoothly and realistically as the prototypes.

VIP Program
We have decided to launch a new VIP customer rewards program as a way to give something back to our regular customers. We appreciate our customers and like to say thank you to all those who purchase their model railway requirements from us on a regular basis.
You can now earn points with every dollar you spend and then once these points have accumulated, the rewards will be yours to choose from: They will include a free choice of rolling stock, catalogues from your favourite brand when they are released, and also calendars at the end of the year. Even a locomotive might come your way without spending a cent, provided your award points have accumulated beyond a specified limit.
So what are you waiting for? Contact us and let us know that you would like to be part of the program. We will send you your VIP card  and you too will have the opportunity to earn some great rewards from the Orient Express Model Railway Shop.
