At that time Sentinel were producing steam locomotives and lorries, but the manufacturing of these vehicles ceased in 1958. In 1959, Sentinel produced a prototype diesel shunter which was operated on the military controlled Shropshire \u0026amp; Montgomeryshire Railway. In total 17 were produced and operated quite successfully during that year. 1963 saw the introduction of the 34 ton chain drive 4 wheel Rolls-Royce diesel powered Sentinel shunter rated at 233 bhp which was later uprated to 255bhp. As time progressed the design was modified with all manner of variations, including 6 and 8 wheel coupled locomotives which found service in collieries, dockyards, quarries and foundries, with others being exported and operated on Portuguese Railways. Over the years, as these locomotives were retired, many found their way on to preserved railways where they continue to provide stalwart service. This locomotive has had various roles and owners over the years before ending up in the hands of London Carriers International, based at Paddock Wood in Kent. London Carriers International operated a large rail fitted warehouse and used their sentinel to move goods dropped off by BR trains into and around the ½ mile long building. Supposedly the exhausts produced at start-up regularly set off the buildings fire alarms and so the locomotive was quickly sold on to the East Lancashire Railway.\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e9.8\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Scale\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1:76 Scale 00 Gauge\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFinish\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePainted\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eColour\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBlue\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eGauge\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOO\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDCC Status\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDCC Ready 4 pin socket\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOperator\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLondon Carriers\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDesigner\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSentinel\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWheel Configuration\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0-4-0\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eLivery\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLondon Carriers blue\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMinimum Curve (mm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eRadius 1\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e3 Pole\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42978404401389,"sku":"HORR30009","price":259.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/r30009_1_london-carrier-sentinel.jpg?v=1764014525"},{"product_id":"hornby-r30027-cappagh-cl-60-co-co-60028","title":"Hornby R30027 Cappagh Cl.60 Co-Co 60028","description":"\u003cp\u003eHornby R30027 Cappagh Cl.60 Co-Co 60028\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection\u003eBuilt between 1989 and 1993, 100 BR Class 60 locomotives were built by Brush Traction in Loughborough.

A tender for six locomotives was created by Foster Yeoman, operator of Torr Works, for a powerful locomotive with 95% availability. Although Brush Traction and BREL of Britain were invited to come up with a design, only EMD could be the 95% availability criteria. EMD's tender was sufficiently adept at the work required that double heading would no longer be needed, resulting in the order being reduced to just 4. The locomotives were delivered to the UK via Southampton in January 1986 becoming the first privately owned locomotives to regularly operate on Britain's mainline and the first designed and built in the US. After the initial 4 locomotives were proven successful, the Amalgamated Roadstone Corporation (ARC) ordered another 4 which were built by General Motors Diesel Division at their Canadian plant in London, Ontario in 1990. A final order of six locomotives was placed by National Power which were again built in Ontario in 1994 and 1995. The hugely successful EMD Class 66 is partially a development of the Class 59 and shares many components including its bodywork. Locomotive No. 59101 was one of the 4 ARC locomotives to be built in Canada. The locomotive arrived in Britain in October 1990 and entered service the following month. By the time the locomotive had arrived ARC had been purchased by Hanson PLC and as a result over the next few years all four of the ARC order locomotives were repainted into the blue and white Hanson livery.\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e28\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Scale\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1:76 Scale 00 Gauge\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFinish\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePainted\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eColour\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBlue\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eGauge\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOO\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDCC Status\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDCC Ready 8 pin socket\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOperator\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eHanson PLC\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDesigner\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGM\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eLivery\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eHanson PLC\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMinimum Curve (mm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eRadius 2\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e3 Pole\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eClass\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eClass 59\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43936903725293,"sku":"HORR30070","price":225.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/r30070_1_class-59.jpg?v=1764014762"},{"product_id":"hornby-r3989-lner-a1-cl-2564-knightofthis","title":"Hornby R3989 LNER A1 Cl. 2564 'KnightOfThis","description":"\u003cp\u003eHornby R3989 LNER A1 Cl. 2564 'KnightOfThis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection\u003eBuilt in August 1924, Gresley designed A1 No. 2564 was typical of the majority of the class in being named after a racehorse, in this case 'Knight of the Thistle', winner of the 1897 Royal Hunt Cup.

The gear ratios have also been increased, allowing higher speeds and the cab is designed around a central driving position. The Class 67 locomotives are able to supply electric head-end power for passenger train heating and air-conditioning and are equipped for buffer and screw coupling, as well as also coupling via a buckeye coupler, attached on a swing arm mount. Locomotive number 67014 was built in March 2000 for EWS. In 2008 the locomotive was repainted silver and grey and operated for Wrexham \u0026amp; Shropshire under the name 'Thomas Telford'.

As the brains behind the locomotive stock of the GNR, he had commissioned a new high speed passenger locomotive class to serve the GNR’s London to York main line. These became the A1 locomotive class, before a subsequent rebuild gave them the designation of the A3 class. One such example of this new and powerful class was named after the 10:00am service between London and Edinburgh, the named Special Scotch Express, or as it was renamed in 1924 the Flying Scotsman.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe locomotive in question, number 1472, was originally outshopped from the GNR’s Doncaster Works as a class A1 with GNR colouring, lettering and numbering before being renumbered and named in 1924 to promote the LNER’s Flying Scotsman service. Despite its new name and number, 4472 Flying Scotsman herself did not actually pull the Flying Scotsman service until 1928, spending the first four years of its life undertaking promotional work and light duties for the LNER, such as being its star exhibit at both the 1924 and 1925 British Empire Exhibition. Relatively little of note would occur in the locomotives life and service for the next twenty years, with main changes consisting of her coupling with a corridor tender in 1928 (this allowed the locomotive to run non-stop between London and Edinburgh as the crew could be swapped via the tender mid run) before being reverted to the original tender in 1936. The game of LNER musical chairs did not stop here however, with the tender again being swapped in 1938 for a streamlined tender, with much the same appearance as a corridor tender without the corridor. Flying Scotsman would retain her streamlined tender until her withdrawal from British Railways service, numbered 60103, in 1963.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn preservation, Flying Scotsman has captured the hearts of the nation, becoming recognised by even those with less than a passing interest in railways and railway history. Under various notable owners, including Alan Pegler and Sir William McAlpine, Flying Scotsman has undertaken tours of America and Australia with mixed success and under ownership of the National Railway Museum saw a six million pound overhaul, cementing her future as a main line stalwart.

British Rail awarded the contract to design and build these new engines to Brush Traction in Loughborough, who subsequently sub-contracted the construction to Electroputere in Romania, due to the lack of capacity in their own works. The initial 30 locomotives to be delivered from Romania suffered from transit damage and construction deficiencies and had to be extensively rebuilt before entering service. With this in mind the decision was made to build the remaining 105 locomotives in England, British Rail Engineering Ltd manufacturing them at their Doncaster Works (nos. 56031 to 56115) and Crewe Works (nos. 56116 to 56135). The design specification was based upon the Class 47 bodyshell, with the omission of redundant features such as the headcode panel. Power came from a Ruston-Paxman unit that was similar to that fitted in the Class 50 locomotives, which provided the capability for heavy haul freight. Air brakes were fitted for the first time in a British Rail engine and the electrics were improved in a number of areas, resulting in a more robust power unit. Nicknamed as Gridirons or \"Grids\", the Class 56 displaced the Class 20 and Class 47 locomotives and commonly undertook the transportation of iron ore, coal, aggregate and steel across the Eastern and London Midland Regions and on the Western Region for aggregate duties. Strong and reliable performers, the locomotives were popular, but needed heavy maintenance, particularly when compared against the Class 66 locomotives that came to displace them in service. The introduction of the Class 60 locomotives saw a gradual reduction in the use of the Class 56 locomotives and with the arrival of the Class 66 locomotives, with their greater availability and lower maintenance, the Class 56 fleet were placed into storage between 1998 and 2004. Most of the locomotives remain in depots around the UK, despite being variously sold for scrap and then re-acquired and reinstated in service. Colas Railfreight operate a small fleet on a rotating basis and British American Railway Services and UK Rail Leasing have a number available for working. Five locomotives, 56006, 56097, 56098, 56301 and 56302 have been preserved. No. 56047 was built in July 1978 by BREL in Doncaster.

The locomotives are able to supply Electric Train Supply for passenger train heating and air-conditioning, and are equipped for buffer and screw coupling and also coupling via a buckeye coupler attached on a swing arm mount. High speed running tests were undertaken with 67002 starting at Alstom's facility at La Sagra (Toledo, Spain) and running on the standard gauge Madrid-Toledo high-speed rail line. A top speed of 143 miles per hour was obtained. Initially the Class were used primarily on mail trains. In June 2003 EWS lost the Royal Mail mail train contract, with services diminishing to complete cessation in March 2004. The locomotives have since been used by First ScotRail on the Caledonian Sleeper on non-electrified lines north of Edinburgh.

Electrification had been newly authorised over this section in 1970 and was scheduled for completion by May 1974, leaving little time to design a completely new locomotive from scratch and so British Rail decided to base the new class on the existing Class 86 locomotives. The British Railways Board placed an order for thirty four locomotives, later to be increased to thirty six, with British Rail Engineering Ltd at Crewe, GEC Traction providing the electrical equipment. Designed from the outset to work in pairs, as well as in parallel with the Class 86 fleet, the Class 87 was broadly similar to the Class 86 in terms of layout and styling, but mechanically it was a very different. Immediately identifiable by its new twin windscreen cab, multiple-unit control cables and a redesigned BP9 bogie with Flexicoil suspension, the new locomotives were assembled during 1973-74 and were geared for 110mph running on the WCML, being able to haul 450 ton passenger trains, or 750 ton freight trains single handed. With a power rating of 5000hp, they were to be the most powerful locomotives to run under British Rail until the late 1980s. The first locomotive, 87001, entered traffic in June 1973, the remainder of the fleet being deployed in the general West Coast pool as they entered service, operating Euston to Preston services as the WCML's electrification spread north. On April 22, 1974 the new West Coast 'Electric Scot' service was introduced, marking a major launch for the class and journey times from London-Glasgow were cut to just five hours. When British Railways reversed its locomotive naming policy in 1977, the class were given the generic title of 'Royal Scot' and named from a selection of famous steam hauled predecessors. Sectorisation of the railways in the late 1980s\/early 1990s meant rail freight operations were wound down and the fleet were engaged solely on passenger services. Following complete privatisation in the mid-1990s, Porterbrook leasing took over ownership of the fleet, but the introduction of the Pendolino trains led to the Class 87s being withdrawn from the core InterCity routes and complete withdrawal began in 2003, with 87016 being the first to be dismantled in November 2004. The last mainstream locomotive hauled service took place on June 10, 2005 and Porterbrook began to look at how best to employ the locomotives, spells with DRS, Cotswold Rail and First GBRf ensuing. The fleet, not being fitted with On Train Monitoring and Recording (OTMR) could not operate beyond January 1, 2008 and were finally withdrawn from service, some going to Bulgaria between 2008 and 2012. No. 87006 entered traffic in November 1973 and was named 'City of Glasgow' between December 1977 and 1987. After this it was briefly named 'Glasgow Garden Festival' until 1989 at which point it returned to being called 'City of Glasgow' until 1997. In 1984, 87006 and 87012 were selected to trial new liveries in advance of an improved 110mph service on the WCML. 87006 received a version of the large-logo livery, but with dark grey as the base colour rather than Rail Blue, while 87012 received a version of the APT-P livery, which became known as InterCity Executive livery. In 2009 87006 was one of the class to be exported to work for the Bulgarian Railway Company.\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e24.3\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Scale\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1:76 Scale 00 Gauge\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFinish\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePainted\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eColour\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGrey\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eGauge\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOO\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDCC Status\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDCC Ready 8 pin socket\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOperator\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBR\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDesigner\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBREL\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eLivery\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBR Grey\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMinimum Curve (mm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eRadius 2\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e5 Pole Skew wound\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e5 pole skew wound\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eClass\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eClass 87\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44162227667181,"sku":"HORR30030","price":574.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/r30030_1_class-87-city-of-glasgow.jpg?v=1764015410"},{"product_id":"hornby-r30031-br-cl-87-bo-bo-cityofbirmingh","title":"Hornby R30031 BR Cl.87 Bo-Bo 'CityOfBirmingh","description":"\u003cp\u003eHornby R30031 BR Cl.87 Bo-Bo 'CityOfBirmingham'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection\u003eThe Class 87 locomotive design resulted from a requirement for a more powerful mixed traffic electrical locomotive by British Rail, needed to cope with the route gradients of the West Coast Main Line between Weaver Junction and Glasgow. Electrification had been newly authorised over this section in 1970 and was scheduled for completion by May 1974, leaving little time to design a completely new locomotive from scratch and so British Rail decided to base the new class on the existing Class 86 locomotives. The British Railways Board placed an order for thirty four locomotives, later to be increased to thirty six, with British Rail Engineering Ltd at Crewe, GEC Traction providing the electrical equipment. Designed from the outset to work in pairs, as well as in parallel with the Class 86 fleet, the Class 87 was broadly similar to the Class 86 in terms of layout and styling, but mechanically it was a very different. Immediately identifiable by its new twin windscreen cab, multiple-unit control cables and a redesigned BP9 bogie with Flexicoil suspension, the new locomotives were assembled during 1973-74 and were geared for 110mph running on the WCML, being able to haul 450 ton passenger trains, or 750 ton freight trains single handed. With a power rating of 5000hp, they were to be the most powerful locomotives to run under British Rail until the late 1980s. The first locomotive, 87001, entered traffic in June 1973, the remainder of the fleet being deployed in the general West Coast pool as they entered service, operating Euston to Preston services as the WCML's electrification spread north. On April 22, 1974 the new West Coast 'Electric Scot' service was introduced, marking a major launch for the class and journey times from London-Glasgow were cut to just five hours. When British Railways reversed its locomotive naming policy in 1977, the class were given the generic title of 'Royal Scot' and named from a selection of famous steam hauled predecessors. Sectorisation of the railways in the late 1980s\/early 1990s meant rail freight operations were wound down and the fleet were engaged solely on passenger services. Following complete privatisation in the mid-1990s, Porterbrook leasing took over ownership of the fleet, but the introduction of the Pendolino trains led to the Class 87s being withdrawn from the core InterCity routes and complete withdrawal began in 2003, with 87016 being the first to be dismantled in November 2004. The last mainstream locomotive hauled service took place on June 10, 2005 and Porterbrook began to look at how best to employ the locomotives, spells with DRS, Cotswold Rail and First GBRf ensuing. The fleet, not being fitted with On Train Monitoring and Recording (OTMR) could not operate beyond January 1, 2008 and were finally withdrawn from service, some going to Bulgaria between 2008 and 2012. No. 87009 entered traffic in November 1973 named 'City of Birmingham'. In 2012, 87009 was exported to Bulmarket, Bulgaria.\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e24.3\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Scale\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1:76 Scale 00 Gauge\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFinish\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePainted\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eColour\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGrey\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eGauge\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOO\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDCC Status\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDCC Ready 8 pin socket\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOperator\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBR\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDesigner\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBREL\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eLivery\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBR Executive\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMinimum Curve (mm)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eRadius 2\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e5 Pole Skew wound\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMotor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e5 pole skew wound\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eClass\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eClass 87\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44162227699949,"sku":"HORR30031","price":574.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/r30031_1_city-of-birmingham-class-87.jpg?v=1764015412"},{"product_id":"hornby-r30013-ruston-hornsby-48ds-4wdm200","title":"Hornby R30013 Ruston \u0026 Hornsby 48DS 4wDM200","description":"\u003cp\u003eHornby R30013 Ruston \u0026amp; Hornsby 48DS, 4wDM200\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExperience railway modeling excellence with the Hornby R30013 Ruston \u0026amp; Hornsby 48DS, 4wDM200.

To overcome this situation, Nigel Gresley, Chief Mechanical Engineer (CME) of the LNER began designing a new locomotive at the LNER Doncaster Works in 1932. The 2-8-2 configured locomotive was given the classification P2 and had four driving axles for greater adhesion, an A3 type boiler and a Kylchap type blastpipe\/chimney system. A total of six of the Class were built. As the first two were returned to Doncaster for repairs they were fitted with streamlined fronts similar to the A4 Pacifics. The last four to be built were outshopped with streamlined fronts. By 1944 the whole Class had been withdrawn. The 'A1 Trust', builders of the A1 locomotive 'Tornado', are planning to build a Class P2 locomotive as it was originally outshopped from the LNER and have accordingly formed the 'P2 Steam Locomotive Company'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECH SPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm): 29.6\u003cbr\u003eItem Scale: 1\/76\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Painted\u003cbr\u003eColour: Green\u003cbr\u003eGauge: OO\u003cbr\u003eDCC Status: DCC Ready 8 pin socket\u003cbr\u003eOperator: LNER\u003cbr\u003eLivery: Green\u003cbr\u003eDesigner: Sir Nigel Gresley\u003cbr\u003eWheel Configuration: 2-8-2\u003cbr\u003eMinimum Curve (mm): Radius 2\u003cbr\u003eMotor: 3 pole\u003cbr\u003eClass: P2\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44395534450925,"sku":"HORR3171","price":379.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/HORR3171.jpg?v=1764015583"},{"product_id":"hornby-r30084-msc-sentinel-0-6-0-3001-era-8","title":"Hornby R30084 MSC Sentinel 0-6-0 3001 - Era 8","description":"\u003cp\u003eHornby R30084 MSC, Sentinel, 0-6-0, 3001 - Era 8\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMSC Sentinel 10144 was delivered to the Manchester Ship Canal Railway Co. in 1963.
