Rapido Trains UK OO‑gauge model of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Class 25 “Ironclad” 0‑6‑0 steam locomotive, number 12042 in LMS livery (cab‑side number). The model incorporates DCC sound (manufacturer part number 817506) and is suitable for running on 2nd‑radius curves of 438 mm or greater.

Key technical features include a L&Y‑style smokebox door, a single boiler handrail, Ramsbottom safety valves, a core‑less motor with flywheel, a 21‑pin decoder socket in the tender, a large tender‑mounted speaker, MoPower stay‑alive circuitry, plunger locomotive and tender wheel‑bearing pickups, dynamic firebox flicker and NEM pocket pick‑ups at both front and rear.

The model accurately reproduces the historical appearance of the Class 25, a freight locomotive introduced from 1876, later used for mixed‑traffic duties and nicknamed “Ironclad”. The original locomotives served the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, later the LMS (power class 2F), and the final survivor, No 957 “Green Dragon”, was preserved after withdrawal in 1959 and featured in several film and television productions.

Rapido Trains UK will offer the model in a range of liveries, including two representing different periods of the locomotive’s preservation history.
