Product Description
This is an N Gauge model of a Liverpool & Manchester Railway ‘Northumbrian’ class locomotive – the developmental link between ‘Rocket’ and ‘Planet’ and the first commercial class to operate on this important railway. Combined with the N Gauge Northumbrian tender (separately available), this scratch aid enables an unpowered free-rolling model engine that can be used with the various motorised coaches/trucks also available.
