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.

Hornby model BR 4‑6‑0 S15 Class locomotive, running number 30832, is presented in a pristine black finish with the early British Railways emblem. The model measures 266 mm in length and represents the London & South Western Railway S15 locomotive as it appeared under British Railways with the early crest.

It is equipped with a 5‑pole skew‑wound motor, DCC Twin Track Sound (TTS) fitted, and can be powered from both the driving wheels and the tender wheels. The minimum curve radius is the second radius of 438 mm. Coupling is supplied as NEM with a tension‑lock, and the sound and DCC functions are operational on standard DCC layouts.

The prototype was built between 1920 and 1936, with a total of 45 examples produced. Designed by Richard Maunsell and constructed at the LSWR/SR Eastleigh Works, the locomotive falls under the 4‑6‑0 wheel arrangement and was originally a steam‑powered vehicle in service with British Railways. The Hornby part number is R3507TTS.
