Revealed as part of the Bachmann Autumn 2023 announcements, EFE Rail are to produce the WD Austerity / J94 0-6-0 tank locomotive as their first N Gauge steam locomotive.

Built between 1943 and 1964, almost 500 locomotives were constructed and following World War Two many found new work with the LNER, as Class J94s, and in industrial use allowing the type to carry many colourful and often unique liveries.
