The Rapido 16" Hunslet 'Glasshoughton No.4' is a model locomotive designed for use on OO gauge model railways. This model is part of the Rapido 16" Hunslet Saddle Tank Batch 2 collection.

The locomotive is designed to represent a railway engine from the Big Four era, which spanned the period of the four main railway companies in the UK: the London, Midland and Scottish Railway, the Great Western Railway, the London, Midland and Scottish Railway, and the Southern Railway.

The model features a die-cast metal construction, a high-quality motor and mechanism, and a Next18 decoder socket for easy digital control. The level of detail is high, with many separately fitted parts included. Additionally, the model features NEM coupler pockets for easy connection to other rolling stock and sprung buffers for a more realistic ride.
