The Hornby LMS Princess Royal model (4‑6‑2, number 6201 ‘Princess Elizabeth’) reproduces the London, Midland & Scottish Railway 8P Princess Royal locomotive, designed by William Stanier and built at Crewe Works between 1933 and 1935. Only 13 of the original locomotives were produced, and the model represents the Big Four era of British railways.

The model measures 299 mm in length, features a crimson lake livery, and is finished in pristine condition. It is DCC fitted with a five‑pole skew‑wound motor, picks up power via both driving and tender wheels, and runs on a minimum radius of the second curve (438 mm). Coupling is provided by NEM with a tension‑lock, and it carries the running number 6201 and the name ‘Princess Elizabeth’.
