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 BR Lord Nelson Class 4‑6‑0 model, number 30850, reproduces the British Railways locomotive named Lord Nelson in its late‑crest lined green livery. The locomotive is presented in pristine condition and carries the era‑5 classification.

The model measures 283 mm in length and runs on a 5‑pole skew‑wound motor with DCC Twin Track Sound fitted. It can navigate a minimum radius of 438 mm (2nd radius) and draws power from both the driving wheels and tender wheels. Coupling is via NEM / tension‑lock, and the locomotive is powered by steam simulation.

The prototype locomotive was designed by Richard Maunsell, built at the Southern Railway Eastleigh Works between 1926 and 1929, and was one of 16 produced for the Southern Railway Lord Nelson class. This model, part number R3603TTS, represents the British Railways period with the late crest insignia.
