Several manufacturers have produced models of Class 08 shunters. In the past, in OO scale, Wrenn, Tri-ang, Hornby Railways and Bachmann all produced models of varying accuracy.

Lima also produced a model in several different liveries, but the model was actually of the near-identical British Rail Class 09.

Since 2000, both Bachmann Branchline and Hornby have released much more detailed models, in a variety of liveries and with a variety of appropriate detail variations.

In British N Gauge, Graham Farish have also produced two versions; a relatively crude version lacking outside frames that was discontinued in 2007, and a more detailed version with outside frames that was unveiled 2008.

Famous quotes containing the word models:

    “French rhetorical models are too narrow for the English tradition. Most pernicious of French imports is the notion that there is no person behind a text. Is there anything more affected, aggressive, and relentlessly concrete than a Parisan intellectual behind his/her turgid text? The Parisian is a provincial when he pretends to speak for the universe.”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    “Today it is not the classroom nor the classics which are the repositories of models of eloquence, but the ad agencies.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “... your problem is your role models were models.”
    —Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
