Rapido Class 25 “Ironclad” 0‑6‑0 steam locomotive model, catalogue number 817007, is an OO‑gauge representation of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway locomotives later incorporated into the LMS. The model is supplied in the LMS cab‑side number livery and includes optional liveries that reflect various periods of the class’s preservation history.

Key features include suitability for operation on 2nd‑radius curves of 438 mm or greater, an LMS‑style smokebox door, three‑piece boiler handrail and Ramsbottom safety valves. The locomotive is powered by a core‑less motor with a flywheel, has a 21‑pin decoder socket in the tender, a large tender‑mounted speaker, MoPower stay‑alive circuitry, plunger locomotive pickups, tender wheel‑bearing pickups, dynamic firebox flicker and NEM pockets at both front and rear.

The model faithfully reproduces the external details of the original Class 25 engines, first built for the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway from 1876 to 1887 by manufacturers including Kitson & Co., Sharp, Stewart & Co., Vulcan and Beyer‑Peacock. Originally designed for freight work, the locomotives earned the nickname “Ironclad” and later served in mixed‑traffic, local goods and shunting duties until the final member was withdrawn in 1959.

This Rapido rendition is intended for collectors and railway‑modelling enthusiasts who wish to represent a historically significant British locomotive from the Big Four era, providing a range of detailing options and compatibility with standard OO‑gauge layouts.
