Year Information: Over 800 of these locomotives were built by the LMS and every one was painted in freight black, a colour that remained with these locomotives until the last of the Class was removed fron traffic in 1968. However, as the ringfield motor powered model shows, the austere appearance only goes to highlight the detailed body and intricate valve gear which are all hallmarks of the locomotive.
