Help & Support
Originally Class G23 when constructed by the Great Northern Railway, these engines were redesignated J50 by the LNER and became strongly associated with shunting duties and coal traffic in North East England. They were known as 'Submarines' due to the distinctive shape of their tanks. This model has been constructed to a high standard from a Connoisseur kit and is appropriate for modelling periods up to the mid-1960s.
