A growing number are now certified for cross-border service in countries including Sweden, Norway, Italy, Belgium and France, reflecting its increasing role in European freight and shunting operations.","brand":"Arnold","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53169273373009,"sku":"HIN9082","price":157.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/4992\/2129\/files\/hin9082_1.jpg?v=1772227072","url":"https:\/\/www.jadlamracingmodels.com\/products\/arnold-hin9082-sncf-reseau-de18-diesel-locomotive-vi-tt-gauge","provider":"Jadlam Toys \u0026 Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
