WORKSHOP Finescale O Gauge (Kit/Scratch-Built) NER Raven A2 'City Of Ripon' No. 2404 LNER Apple Green

Notify me when this product is available:

Built from what appears to be scratch made components, this rare example of the NER's swansong has been constructed using brass and cast metal. Finished in LNER Apple Green, these locomotives were built at the very end of the NER with only two of the five built seeing service with the company. Sadly these machines were bested at the grouping by Gresley's A1s and were all withdrawn and scrapped by 1937.
