BR (exLMS) Stanier Princess Coronation Pacific no. 46241 City of Edinburgh

BR (exLMS) Stanier Princess Coronation Pacific no. 46241 City of Edinburgh.Well built and painted by persons unknown, from the very good value David Andrews kit. With the correct Stanier style wheels by Slaters, an ABC motor and gear unit with power collection by plunger pickups, she performs very smoothly and powerfully. The leading axle is cranked to drive the working motion for the inside cylinders. This is a true “Semi”, more accurately a de-streamliner, with a sloping top to the smokebox and the tender rear correctly has the side extensions, twin tank fillers and a coal pusher. The attractive livery is the experimental “British Railways” blue with LNWR style red, cream and grey lining. Totally authentic for the period circa 1948-1951.
