PO Type Overhead Electric Locomotives
The four wheeled 'PO' locomotives were manufactured by Hornby from 1931 until 1953 in a variety of forms, initially with collapsible dummy pantographs and finally with simple fixed pantographs. Many liveries and colours were produced, fitted with both 20v and 60v electric motors, manual and auto reverse, and a non reversing clockwork motor.

OBB Type Overhead Electric Locomotives
The OBB models were introduced in 1954, and were produced until 1963. Initial models were dark green with red highlights, including red SNCF transfers (decals) on the nose. Later models were two tone livery with gold SNCF on the nose, with some dark green models also receiving the gold SNCF nose transfer.
