Full Product Description

The Great Northern Railway (GNR) No. 1 class Stirling Single steam locomotives were designed in the late 1800’s for express passenger work. Designed by Patrick Stirling, they are characterised by a single pair of large (8 ft 1 in) driving wheels which have become iconic in and of themselves. A total of 53 were built at Doncaster Works between 1870 and 1895. The first of the class, No. 1, is the only engine to be preserved, and is exhibited in GREAT HALL at the Railway Museum in York. It was restored to running order during the 1930s, and steamed again briefly during the 1980s. The locomotive went through ‘The Stirling Tender Project’ in 2014 returning it to its prototypical condition, which is how it can be seen today.

Model Features:
- Smooth running mechanism.
- Suitable for operation on 2nd Radius curves (438mm or greater).
- Accurate, fine scale precision livery application.
- Working firebox flicker.
- Laser 3D scanned for accuracy.

    Stunning model, superb service 👌🏻

    An absolutely stunning model from Rapido.

    Runs beautifully straight from the box.

    This was a later batch release with built in stayalives on the mother board and built in speaker.

    Very fast delivery from the science museum group.

    Thank you
