‘New-build’ Victorian veterans in the limelight on the model stage
TWO preserved Victorian steam locomotives that jointly total 287 years of age – including a 4-4-2T which famously survived against the odds and saw service with BR until the 1960s – are to take centre stage in this year’s build programme of leading British large scale model-maker Accucraft UK.
They are LSWR radial tank No., one of the world’s oldest operational locomotives whose overhaul costs in 2021 will be boosted by sales of the upcoming model.
