2002 | 'Weymouth' was outshopped in September 1949 with the running number of 34091, a number incidentally that remained with the locomotive until it was withdrawn in September 1964. The Hornby model shows ‘Weymouth’ as it was in 1962 with a 9‘ wide, cut down tender. As with the other models in the class, a 5 pole motor provides the power with pick-ups on all driving and tender wheels. |
