This is a superb example of  the  Rare and much sought after Wrenn W2272 LMS Maroon 8F Locomotive, running number 8016.This was produced by Basildon between 1983 and 1992 and although it is claimed that 268 were issued, I suspect the production was less based on my experience as a collector.. This genuine W2272 was issued in 1983 and I do not believe you will see a better example...

This is the ideal for the collection and/or the "workhorse" for freight operations on any "OO Gauge" Layout. 

This comes in a late Period 4 box, and includes packing rings, tissue, and original blue  Instruction Manual. The bottom of the inner box is stamped "Packer No 3 05320" indicating 20th week,.5th month, 1983 Basildon issue date.

NOTE: The box end stamp on this range of the Wrenn 8F always included the running number 8016. The stamp on both box end flaps reads W2272 2-8-0 FREIGHT L.M.S. MAROON NO. 8016 which is correct for Wrenn, Basildon issue.    

 Locomotive/tender/box are " near mint  ",considering their age.
