The Bachmann MR 3835 model represents a Midland Railway Class 4F 0-6-0 steam locomotive coupled with a Fowler tender. It carries the running number 44044 and is presented in the British Railways Black livery with the late crest applied to the tender. The model is aimed at the late crest period of British Railways, reflecting the appearance of the locomotive after nationalisation.

The kit is supplied as a weathered version, giving the locomotive a slightly worn look that suggests years of service. It is suitable for model railway enthusiasts who wish to depict a post-war British steam engine in a realistic, operational condition.
