Product Description
District Railway Electric Loco
The District Railway bought ten bogie box cab locomotives in 1905. They were manufactured by the Metropolitan Amalgamated Carriage and Wagon Company, and most of them had a single cab at one end. Consequently, they were worked in pairs, coupled back to back with the cabs at the outer end.
The locomotives were used to haul London and North Western Railway passenger trains on the electrified section of the Outer Circle route between Earl's Court and Mansion House. After that servce was terminated in 1908,they were used to haul District line trains, one coupled to each end of a rake of four trailer cars. From 1910 trains from the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway (LT&SR) were extended over the District line, the steam locomotives being exchanged for electric ones at Barking. Two rakes of carriages were provided by the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway, and were hauled over the District tracks by the locomotives working in pairs.
Three of the locomotives were withdrawn , the remaining 7 continued in servce up till 1938, and the final one in 1939 when the service closed at start of WW2.
Requires finishing off, wheels etc
Scale TT (1/100, 3mm/ft)
