The Bigjigs Rail Heritage Collection offers a delightful range of replicas
from the golden age of rail, including the Dwight D. Eisenhower. Originally
known as Golden Shuttle and numbered 4496 in 1937, the Dwight D. Eisenhower was
then renamed after World War II and renumbered 8 in 1946, under Edward
Thompson’s LNER 1946 renumbering scheme. After nationalisation in 1948 British
Railways renumbered it 60008. It was retired from service in 1963 and moved to
the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin, United States. The
packaging includes information about the evolution and working life of the
engine. A great addition to any wooden train set. Encourages creative and
imaginative role play. Magnetic couplings ensure compatibility with all other
engines and carriages in the Bigjigs Rail range. Most other major wooden
railway brands are compatible with Bigjigs Rail. Made from high quality,
responsibly sourced materials. Conforms to current European safety standards.
