Ivor the Engine Rolling Stock Pack
The Rapido MR 483 model No.70 is a OO gauge representation of a locomotive from the Southern Railway's predecessor, the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. This model features a livery of Prussian blue and carries the running number 518. It is DCC Ready, meaning it is equipped with a 21-pin decoder socket, and represents the pre-grouping era.
The locomotive is modelled with a capuchon chimney, tall dome, and Ramsbottom safety valves, all of which are characteristic of the rebuilt body style. The smokebox is rivetted and the bogie is also depicted in its rebuilt form. The tender is modelled in the style of the S&DJR, complete with a tablet catcher.
The model features a range of separately fitted parts, including sprung buffers and NEM coupling pockets. A factory-fitted speaker provides a smooth and powerful sound.
