LMS Stanier ‘Black Five’ 4-6-0 and Tender No. 5016 — Steamline Ltd.

LIB02. LMS Stanier ‘Black Five’ 4-6-0 and Tender No. 5016. In pre-war lined LMS black with gold letters shaded red and paired with a Stanier rivetted tender. With combined dome/topfeed. Shedplate 29H Inverness. This is from an Oakville brass kit and fitted with a Canon motor, multi-stage gearbox, Slaters wheels, compensation on the leading two driving axles and centre tender axle, and with excellent cab detail and crew. Also fitted with a tablet catcher for single line working. The model is well built to a very good amateur standard and has had light to medium use. The prototype was into service from Crewe Works in May 1935 and was at Motherwell for most of its BR life, and probably earlier, being withdrawn from Ayr in July 1966. I don’t have details of its LMS service but likely to have been a long term Scottish loco. PRICE REDUCTION TO £895.
