4mm RTR Locos
This list shows most GWR 4mm Ready to Run locos produced in the UK since
the 1970s. Note that the list is arranged by year of introduction on the
GWR. It indicates current and previous manufacturers, although this has
been simplified.
The list also indicates whether the models have been recently marketed
(ie within the past 3 years or so). Discontinued models are often still
available secondhand, and can be purchased at shows or by mail-order from
dealers.
