Information & Sample Instruction Sheets

Southern Railway Class 02, 0-4-4 Tank

  PROTOTYPE. These locos were built by the LSWR for working a wide range of secondary passenger, branch line and local goods duties. From London Suburban services to West Country branch lines but their iconic work was performed on Isle of Wight summer holiday trains.

  KIT. The body and chassis components are a mixture of brass and heavier nickel silver. This is a very detailed kit with a lot of small fittings, pipework and cab interior detail. A range of fittings to cover changes through to BR days and alternative coal bunkers for Mainland and Isle of Wight versions are provided.
