Adeiladwyd Ruston 262997 yn newydd ar gyfer Cyd-Awdurdod Trydan Gorllewin Canolbarth Lloegr, gan adael Boultham Works ar 27 Ionawr 1949 ar gyfer Gorsaf Bŵer Birchills yn Walsall. Daeth Birchills dan reolaeth y WMJEA ym 1925 ac ym 1944 penderfynwyd adeiladu Gorsaf newydd, Birchills B. Agorodd yr orsaf bŵer newydd, o’r enw ‘Walsall B’, yn swyddogol ar 30 Medi, 1949, a 262997 oedd yn gyfrifol am siyntio yn yr Orsaf Bŵer newydd, gan barhau i gyflawni ei chwedl WMJEA er gwaethaf gwladoli’r diwydiant ym 1948, lle daeth Birchills yn rhan o Ranbarth Canolbarth Lloegr o’r Bwrdd Cynhyrchu Trydan Canolog. Roedd Birchalls yn llosgi glo 'slac', cymysgedd o lo a llwch glo a oedd yn cael ei ddosbarthu ar y ffyrdd, y rheilffordd a'r gamlas. Wedi'i leoli i'r de o hen reilffordd Wolverhampton i Walsall (Cyffordd Ryecroft) yr hen Reilffordd Canolbarth Lloegr, gellid cael mynediad i'r cilffyrdd rheilffordd a'r ardaloedd storio glo o gyfeiriad y dwyrain a'r gorllewin. Caeodd yr Orsaf Bwer ym mis Hydref 1982 a chaewyd bonyn y rheilffordd oedd yn ei gwasanaethu ar yr un pryd.

Beautiful little Ruston

A fantastic model, excellent details, well finished and surprisingly heavy. As always with Accurascale very well packed.
I look forward to more O gauge locos and would like to see Class 08 and Class 13 options next please.

A little Gem

I was so pleased with the HUO’s that I bought from you that I had no hesitation in pre ordering your Ruston 88DS. It is a superb model with a high level of detail, superb running and the livery options are fantastic. Please, please continue to add more superb models to your O gauge product list. Regards, Bill.
