Prototype information

^* Class names often change over the lifespan of a locomotive, so this is not necessarily the class name used by the operator in the period modelled.

The model is DCC ready with a 21‑pin socket, can negotiate a minimum radius curve of 438 mm (2nd radius), and features pickup in the tender. It represents a steam‑powered 2‑6‑0 ‘Mogul’ built between 1933–1934, of which 40 were produced, and is based on a preserved example.

It models the London, Midland & Scottish Railway 5MT class, later operated by British Railways, and was designed by William Stanier. The manufacturer part number is 31‑692 and the period represented is British Railways late crest.
