Lima Model Railway Locomotive Reviews -
Class 59
Class
59 EWS Livery.
Reviewed
Rating 5/10
(Year: 2007)
(Old Rating 8/10,
Detailing excellent, If only they put a new five pole motor in.
Year: 2000)

This is a well detailed, well built, good handling model. It has great low
speed control as well as a very high top speed. The class 59 is almost
identical to the class 66. This model came with detailing parts, from extra
pipe lines to realistic couplings so it could be displayed without the model
railway couplings.
In real life this loco would be seen pulling any kind of freight. I have it
pulling a set of 5 Lima ballasting wagons (seacow) with EWS branding
(Pictured above) or a set of 6 weathered Hornby "2 axle box open wagons". I
like the look of running with branded wagons it makes the train look
complete.
