This stunning Hornby correct scale model is outshopped in the period and incorporates an abundance of detail including sprung buffers, interior glazed cab detail and scale wheels. A five pole motor situated in the locomotive. An alternative front bogie with smaller 9 spoke wheels is included to allow the locomotive to be used on layouts which have curves with less than a 19" radius. |
