Just superb! Very impressive Gauge 1 model of Stanier's versatile and tremendously successful 'Black 5' 4-6-0 mixed traffic locomotive. This class was one of the last in service with British railways in 1968, providing power for many of the farewell to steam railtours. Many Black 5s have survived in preservation, hauling passengers on heritage railways and mainline railtours.

This model is supplied with the riveted construction tender and finished in plain black, ready for finishing with lettering and lining to match a locomotive of your choice.

Ready to run Gauge 1 pre-painted brass model of the Hunslet Austerity or J94 0-6-0 saddle tank with high bunker. The chassis is fitted with sprung front and centre drivers to help keep all the wheels on the rails with the underside of the chassis enclosed, protecting the gears from dirt and grit.
