Prototype information

Rapido Highland Railways Jones Goods 4‑6‑0 Steam Locomotive No 109, HR Drummond Green II is a limited‑edition model released as part of the “Rails of Sheffield” range. It is listed as DCC 21, carries the manufacturer part number 914008 and represents the pre‑grouping period of British railway history.

The model reproduces the Highland Railway “Jones Goods” locomotive built in 1894 by Sharp, Stewart & Co. (works number 4028). It is painted in the plain green livery used between 1916 and 1923 and includes details such as a Cumming number plate, the “H.R” marking on the tender, the locomotive number on the buffer beam, a louvred chimney with a large cap, safety‑valve lock‑ups, a tablet catcher and tender doors.

Historical notes note that although the class is commonly called “Jones Goods” after Chief Engineer David Jones, the idea for the 4‑6‑0 wheel arrangement came from his chief draughtsman David Anderson Hendrie. All fifteen examples were delivered in 1894; the last was withdrawn in 1940, with No 103 preserved and now displayed at Glasgow’s Riverside Museum.

Rapido’s version includes the usual high‑specification features of the brand: fine modelling detail, sprung buffers, a smooth and powerful mechanism, NEM coupler pockets, firebox flicker, a high‑quality paint finish and a factory‑fitted sound speaker.

The model is exclusive to the Rails of Sheffield and Locomotion Models ranges and is offered as part of Rapido’s Railway Icons collection.
