This is a good example of the Wrenn W2268 "Yeovil" Bullied Locomotive in BR Blue, running number 34004. Just over 200 were produced by Wrenn, Basildon between 1983 and 1990. This version has a factory fitted 5 pole motor, which was offered to retailers at the time, and retains the original W2268 stamp on the box end flaps. This particular example is circa 1983/84.
The BR Blue "Yeovil" is one of only 3 Bullieds that Wrenn produced in this Livery, the others being "Lamport and Holt" and "Royal Mail" which is a Limited Edition.
The Locomotive/tender comes complete with early Period 4 box, packing rings, tissue and Blue Instruction Manual. The bottom of the inner box is not stamped which is not unusual for this period.
Condition of the Locomotive/tender is "good to excellent", box is "excellent" for its age.
