Hornby Stanier 5MT 'Black 5' 45055 BR Lined Black (Early)

Stanier 5MT 'Black 5' 45055 BR Lined Black (Early)  Completed in November 1935, this ‘Black Five’ was built at Vulcan Foundry, near Newton-le-Willows in Lancashire.  It spent most of its working career in north-west England and North Wales, though in 1966 it had brief allocations at West Hartlepool and York, before moving back to the Liverpool area and serving at Bank Hall and then Aintree. It almost lasted to the end of steam, withdrawal coming a month shy on 6th July 1968 from Lostock Hall, Preston, with scrapping the following February.  This OO gauge locomotive model features sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings, and can be upgraded to HM7000 control with a 21-pin decoder (sold separately).

Hornby LNER K1 2005 LNER Apple Green (Preserved)

LNER K1 2005 LNER Apple Green (Preserved) The LNER K1 Class is a must-have addition to your steam model railway. With sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings, you can upgrade to DCC control by adding a 21-pin decoder (sold seperately).  The ‘K1s’ were useful and versatile engines, working extensively across former LNER territory, but were mostly associated with north-east England and also the West Highland Line to Fort William and Mallaig.  No. 62005 was the final member of the 70-strong class to remain in service, being withdrawn from Leeds Holbeck in December 1967. Though it survives today in preservation, it was initially acquired as a source of spares for already-preserved ‘K4’ 3442. However, in 1972 it was donated to the North Eastern Locomotive Preservation Group and based at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, where it was restored in its own right, returning to steam in 1975. - DCC Ready 21-Pin Socket - OO Scale

Hornby BR Standard Class 9F 92031 BR Black (Early)

BR Standard Class 9F 92031 BR Black (Early) The smart black BR (Early) Class 9F makes a wonderful OO gauge model locomotive addition to your collection. With sprung metal buffers and NEM tecnsion lock couplings, this model is DCC ready with a 21-pin socket. New to March in Cambridgeshire in November 1954, 92031 was one of 251 ‘standard’ heavy freight locomotives built to the design of Robert Riddles between January 1954 and March 1960. Its working career took it to allocations at New England (Peterborough), Annesley, Westhouses and Newton Heath, Manchester, from where it was withdrawn in January 1967 after an incredibly short working life of just 12 years and almost two months. Scrapped at T.W. Ward at Killamarsh, near Sheffield, the locomotive was always paired with a standard BR1F tender. - DCC Ready 21-Pin Socket - OO Scale
