Model Catalogue Information

YEAR INFORMATION
1994 The yellow flashes across the cabsides were added in the late days of steam to denote that the locomotive was not to work south of Crewe because of the overhead electric wires then being erected. Model is powered by Type 6 ringfield motor. Suitable for use with coached R.442 and R.443 or R.400 and R.448.
1995 Designed as a top link passenger locomotive for the LMS, some Duchesses were in use until the eventual demise of steam in the early 60s. The model is in the livery of that period as the yellow diagonal band on the cabside denotes that the loco could not work south of Crewe because of overhead electric wires. Model has Type 6 ringfield motor incorporated into the tender. Suitable for use with coached R.442 and R.443 or R.400 and R.448.
