RBC Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 (edited) On the hunt for the above. I've noted 26004 (model 2653) and 26008 (model 2655) although not sure of their release dates. Are these both identical in terms of chassis and body, is one a later release, an upgraded version of the other. I thought at some time Heljan may have upgraded the chassis but not sure if any these ones were affected.

RMweb Gold pheaton Posted February 7, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2019 AFAIK Heljan have never made any changes to the class 26 its identical to the very first version they produced....only the 33 had an upgrade, and 99% of that was concentrated on the bodyshell.... with some minor improvement on the bogies... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wirey33 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Both the the same. 26004 was released first and was fetching £150+ on eBay before the release of 26008 (which also sold out pretty quickly) They are very popular models in this livery; if you can find one at a reasonable price, I'd grab it.
