The Rapido Manning Wardle L Class 'Bombay' is a model railway locomotive representing the Manning Wardle 'L' Class, a specific type of 0-6-0 steam locomotive built in 1906, Works No. 1674. This model is part of Rapido's collection of Manning Wardle L Class locomotives.

The 'Bombay' model features a red livery and is available in OO gauge. It is DCC ready, meaning it can be easily upgraded to operate on digital control systems. The model represents the period of the Big Four railway companies, which were the LNER, LMS, GWR, and SR.

This particular model is based on the specifications of the original locomotive, including a full cab, curve-ended frames, single boss wheels, and tapered buffer stocks. It also features a factory-fitted speaker and E24 DCC socket for easy installation of digital control systems. The model has NEM coupler pockets and is equipped with a high-quality motor and mechanism. The level of detail is high, with many separately fitted parts included.
