Manufacturer description

The LMS ‘Jinties’ were used widely for shunting and station pilot duties and were so versatile, they were even capable of running at speeds of up to 60mph. When the first diesel shunters started to be introduced, surplus ‘Jinties’ were sold to industrial users and some received bright liveries, such as this fictitious, but highly attractive, blue ‘Hart & Weaver’ livery. 

This OO gauge RailRoad model of "Jinty" No.5 is perfect for shunting your industrial sidings.

Hornby RailRoad – Hart and Weaver Limited Class 3F “Jinty” No 5

Manufacturer part number R30524. This OO‑scale model represents a London, Midland and Scottish Railway Class 3F 0‑6‑0 tank locomotive, commonly known as a “Jinty”. The type was extensively employed for shunting and station‑pilot duties and was capable of speeds up to 60 mph. After the introduction of diesel shunters, many surplus Jinties were sold to industrial operators, some receiving bright liveries such as the fictional blue Hart & Weaver scheme shown on this model.

The model is supplied in the described blue livery and is suitable for recreating industrial sidings and shunting scenes. It is a ready‑to‑run OO gauge locomotive, designed for use on Hornby RailRoad layouts.
