D J Models Class 71 | Worlds First Crowd Funded OO locomotive (first shown on MikesMovies 2017)

Dave from DJ Models announced via RMweb in July 2014 the first ever crowd funded ready to run locomotive and that it would be a Southern region class 71 B0 Bo Electric.

Now the crowdfunded one is out you can buy a production run version, just check out Kernow's web site below

Crowd funding is when buyers put up the cash in advance of the model being ready then receive the finished product as a reward for their faith at a later date.
In this case at a discounted price and with unique numbers and special packing.
