Rapido Trains OO 965508 Gloucester Corporation Andrew Barclay w/n2126 0-4-0 Fireless Steam Locomotive Sage Green DCC Sound
Highly detailed model of Gloucester Corporation No.1 Andrew Barclay fireless 0-4-0 steam locomotive works number 2126 finished in a sage green livery.
Powered by a high quality motor and drive mechanism designed to give good low-speed performance for shunting duties the fireless locomotive is an ideal industrial shunting locomotive for factories, paper mills, gas works and petro-chemcical industries, especially those producing highly flammable or explosive products.
This locomotive was built in 1942 to move coal from the dock wharf to the Gloucester Corporations' Castle Meads power station. This engine worked until the closure of the power station in 1973, after which it was donated to the nearby Dowty Railway Preservation Society and today is in the care of the Vale of Berkeley Railway at Sharpness.
