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 RailRoad presents the Godfrey & Mitchell Coal Merchants Type D 0‑4‑0T locomotive, model number 9, in a pristine condition. The model is a 1:87 scale replica of the Southern Railway D Industrial 0‑4‑0T built by Dowlais Works in 1907, representing the era of the Big Four railway companies (LNER, LMS, GWR and SR).

The locomotive measures 108 mm in length and runs on a 371 mm minimum radius curve. It is powered by a RM motor with power pickup from all wheels, but it does not have DCC capability. The model carries the Godfrey & Mitchell Coal Merchants livery and is intended for use on private industrial railway layouts.

Only five examples of this class were produced historically. The Hornby model carries the manufacturer part number R3584 and is classified under the Southern Railway D Industrial 0‑4‑0T wheel arrangement.
