The model features Southern plain black livery with Egyptian lettering, a characteristic of the Southern Railway's locomotives. It also boasts a number of detailed features, including tapered buffers, a fully riveted smokebox, and riveted bufferbeams.

The model includes several functional and cosmetic details, such as steam heating pipes, a can motor and flywheel, and route indicator discs. The tender is equipped with a Next18 decoder socket, plunger loco pickups, and tender wheel bearing pickups, while the locomotive itself has twin speakers for sound effects and a firebox glow.
