Manufacturer description

Prototype info

The Kerr Stuart “Victory” locomotives were a class of 10 0-6-0t sourced by the Inland Waterways and Docks Department in 1917. Most saw service at various southern ports before being sold into industry after hostilities ended. Six examples went directly into colliery service, two to the Alexandra Docks Railway, one to the Brecon and Merthyr and one to Colonel Stephens's East Kent (also a coal hauler). A number survived in industrial service into the late 1960s, none were preserved.

The 1:76 scale '00' gauge model features a high torque motor, flywheel driven chassis with darkened RP25-110 profile wheels, highly detailed accurate body with separately applied details and a NEXT18 DCC interface. It will safely negotiate a minimum R2 curve.

Prototype information

Planet Industrials Kerr, Stuart “Victory” 0‑6‑0T locomotive in lined green is offered as a limited‑edition model for the “Rails of Sheffield” range. It carries DCC status DCC 18, the manufacturer part number PI‑001‑C and represents the period of the British “Big Four” railway companies (LNER, LMS, GWR and SR).

The original Victory class comprised ten 0‑6‑0T locomotives built in 1917 for the Inland Waterways and Docks Department. After the war most entered service at southern ports, with six moving to colliery work, two joining the Alexandra Docks Railway, one to the Brecon and Merthyr Railway and one to Colonel Stephens’s East Kent line. A number survived in industrial use into the late 1960s, but none were preserved.

The model is in 1:76 scale for ’00’ gauge and includes a high‑torque flywheel‑driven motor with a 40:1 precision gearbox, allowing slow, smooth running. It rides on darkened RP25‑110 profile wheels, a die‑cast metal chassis and a six‑wheel electrical pickup that can negotiate a minimum R2 curve. Over 200 individual components are injection‑moulded, with a ready‑to‑run body, full cab detail, sprung buffers, correctly heighted NEM coupler pockets and etched works plates showing all ten works numbers. It is DCC ready via a NEXT18 interface and optional front steps and toolboxes are available.
