LMS Duchess Class
Designed by Sir William A. Stanier the first of these
magnificent locomotives was built at Crewe in 1937. With a
tractive effort of 40,000lb these 4 cylinder locomotives were
extremely powerful and can be seen as a response by LMS to the
LNER A4's, built less than 2 years earlier. In fact many
maintain that if it were not for the storm clouds of World War
II gathering that the LMS could have snatched the world speed
record for steam from the LNER A4 Mallard.
The first locomotives out of Crewe works were originally built
as streamliners. Later some were built without streamlining. All
of the streamliners were finally re-built in un-streamlined
form, and all eventually featured double chimneys. The model
offered here is representative of the class as re-built. This
batch of locomotives has the benefit of carrying some of the
most prestigious names in the class to include Coronation and
Duchess of Hamilton.
The locomotives were produced in a variety of liveries in BR
days including maroon, blue and lined green.
The 5" Gauge Model
This magnificent model is built to a near exact scale of 1:11.3.
Although a 4 cylinder model of this size and quality can never
be cheap it certainly offers tremendous value-for-money. You
would be hard pushed to purchase a commercial boiler and raw
castings for much less than the £12,495.00 + VAT we are asking
for this model. Certainly a one-off build by a professional
model maker would cost you many fold this with some medal
winning examples changing hands at auction in excess of
£100,000.
This model is sure to be a real head turner on the track pulling
a substantial load, or when on display in your home, or office.
The model comes complete with a silver soldered copper boiler,
hydraulically tested to twice working pressure. All our boilers
are currently CE marked and supplied with a manufacturer's shell
test certificate, and EU Declaration of Conformity. As testament
to our confidence in the models we provide a full 12 months
warranty on every product. We've presently booked sufficient
factory capacity for the manufacture of just 25 models.
Order reservations will be accepted on a first come, first
served basis.
