This is a superb example of the RARE Wrenn W2225 8F Locomotive in LMS Black, running number 8042. Introduced by Wrenn in Period 1, this survived in production until closure of the Basildon factory in 1992. Two versions were produced of the 8042, one with the early livery, and later in Period 3/4 with the yellow/gold LMS/numbers.
NOTE : ONLY 134 EXAMPLES WERE ISSUED IN PERIOD 4 FOR WITH THIS LATER LIVERY AND THIS EXAMPLE IS ONE OF THEM FROM THE 1982 BUILD. As with all P4 Locomotives it has metal rimmed wheels on the front bogie and tender.
This is an essential workhorse for your layout or the Wrenn Collection!
Comes complete with original P4 box, tissue, packing rings, kit, and blue Instruction Manual. The bottom of the inner box is stamped "Packer No 6" in red ink denoting P4 Basildon issue.
Condition of Loco/tender/box is "near mint" for their age.
