We are delighted to present this Graham Farish LMS Ivatt 2MT following the recent SOUND FITTED upgrades to this model. With every model now featuring a Next18 DCC decoder interface and pre-fitted speaker, this example depicts No. 46477 in BR Lined Black livery with Early Emblem.
This Award Winning model certainly packs a punch when it comes to the detail, with separate metal handrails found throughout the locomotive and tender, lubricators and sand boxes along the running plate and separate pipework running from below the cab to the top feed on the boiler. The turned brass safety valves and whistle contrast beautifully with the firebox on which they are mounted, whilst inside the cab, the moulded back head detail has been decorated to pick out the individual gauges and controls. A hinged tender fall-plate provides the finishing touch to the highly impressive cab of this model.

The LMS ‘Black 5’ is arguably the most famous of the 4-6-0 mixed traffic types built by the LMS, or any of the ‘Big 4’ railway companies, and this iconic design is brought to life in miniature thanks to this N scale model. Depicting No. 5000, a locomotive which was saved for preservation and now forms part of the National Collection, this Graham Farish model is sure to be a welcome addition to the fleet for anyone modelling the LMS era or the preservation scene.
With a powerful tender drive mechanism supported by two axles that are fitted with traction tyres, the tender also houses the DCC decoder socket making it easy to fit a decoder ready for DCC operation. Sporting a high level of detail throughout, this Black 5 is ready to undertake all mixed traffic duties on your model railway.

Depicting No. 45407 ‘The Lancashire Fusilier’, this Graham Farish model captures the locomotive in its current condition where it is a regular performer on mainline railtours including the famous ‘Jacobite’ service in Scotland and the model comes complete with Scottish Region blue-backed smokebox plates.
A welcome addition to the N gauge range, the Ivatt class 2MT (mixed traffic) 2-6-0 moguls were introduced by the LMS after WW2 as replacements for the 50+ year-old locomotives in use on many branch lines.The Graham Farish model has been carefully designed with a new tiny-sized motor which fits inside the boiler. This allows for locomotive drive while retaining a very high level of detailing and an open appearance to the cab.This model is finished in the attractive BR lined green livery, which seemed to suit these small tender engines well.
These modern steam locomotives provided crews with an economical, free steaming and smooth running engine. The tenders were equipped with cab back sections to provide tank engine comfort while running in reverse, but with the increased water and coal capacity.Adopted as a standard type by British Railways 128 of these locomotives were built at Crewe (LMS) Darlington (LNER) and Swindon (GWR) works between 1946 and 1953. 65 of the near-identical BR design were built from 1953 with a slightly revised cab outline and standard fittings.
DCC Ready. 6-pin decoder required for DCC operation.
Grafar's super little N gauge model of Fairburn 2-6-4T engine no. 42096 is painted in BR mixed traffic lined black, with an early lion over wheel emblem. Era 4 1948-1956. NEM coupler pockets. DCC Ready - 6 pin decoder required for DCC operation.
Designed by Charles Fairburn and introduced in 1945 this class of 2-6-4 suburban tank engines expanded on the fleet of earlier Stanier engines. Following nationalisation many were built for Southern region, although still being given London Midland region numbers. Wartime and post war delays in the expansion of electrification created a gap in locomotive capacity on Southern Region that was filled by many of these new, modern steam engines. As a result a total of 277 were built. In 1955 42096 was shedded at 74A Ashford (Kent)
The largest of the 'big four' companies created by the Railways Act of 1921 the London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) was formed on 1 January 1923. The major constituent companies were the London & North Western, running the West Coast route from London to Glasgow, the Midland Railway which served the same destinations but via the highly scenic Settle and Carlilse line, plus a number of large regional companies including the Lancashire & Yorkshire.The combined company was a vast undertaking with numerous interests other than railway operations. It was the largest company in the British Empire and the United Kingdom's second largest employer, after the Post Office, having a larger staff than the British Army! The LMS also claimed to be the largest joint stock organisation in the world. In 1938, the LMS operated 6,870 miles of railway.
