Manufacturer description

The ‘Black 5’, one of Stanier’s finest and certainly one of Hornby’s. Using the very latest state of the art design and manufacturing techniques, this totally new Hornby model not only includes a flickering firebox and lit lamp codes but also sound. Alongside the included steam generator, this Black 5 is also brand new tooling, making it a must-have for any collector or those looking to take a step into model railway steam.
