Manufacturer description

One of only four among the eight hundred and forty-two Stanier ‘Black 5s' to carry a name during their operational service, 45157 ‘Glasgow Highlander’ maintains a sense of distinctiveness and identity among such a prolifically made and serviceable Class. Eighteen ‘Black 5s' have been  preserved, with twelve of them being purchased directly from BR for preservation. Sadly, ‘Glasgow Highlander’ was not one of them.
