Rapido Trains OO 903016 Hunslet John Shaw 16in 0-6-0ST Saddle Tank South Kirby Colliery Lined Green
A detailed model of the Hunslet 16in size 0-6-0 saddle tank engines built for many collieries and quarry companies with 44 locomotives built from 1923 until 1958. Many of these engines were supplied after WW2, so were still in use as the preservation societies started up, resulting in many being purchased in working order for a new life hauling passengers.
This model is finished as Hunslet works number 2375 John Shaw in NCB lined green livery. Built in 1942 this engine was supplied to the South Kirby Coal Company.
