LMS Princess Royal Class Turbomotive Sound Model Steam Locomotive 176 Scale

princessFebruary 27, 2026admin

LMS Princess Royal Class Turbomotive Sound Model Steam Locomotive 1:76 Scale. The Turbomotive was an experimental steam locomotive built in 1935 by the London, Midland, and Scottish Railway (LMS) under the direction of Chief Mechanical Engineer William Stanier. Based on the successful Princess Royal Class design, the Turbomotive stood out for its use of a steam turbine instead of traditional reciprocating pistons. This turbine arrangement allowed for smoother, quieter running, and fewer mechanical parts, which theoretically meant reduced maintenance and greater reliability at sustained high speeds. It was especially efficient on long-distance, high-speed runs where constant power was required. However, the lack of a reliable reverse gear and reduced flexibility at lower speeds or for shunting limited its practical application. Despite promising performance, the complexities of turbine technology in rail use led to the project being discontinued. After World War II, in 1949, the Turbomotive was rebuilt as a conventional piston-driven locomotive, marking the end of Britain’s brief experiment with steam turbine propulsion in railways. Replacement 40 superheater boiler with regulator housed in separate dome. 4000 Gallon standard pattern Stanier Tender with roller bearings. Reverse Turbine modifications added.

Steam Train Model Locomotive Class A3 Night Hawk 60078 BR Hornby 1120 Scale TT

Steam Train Model Locomotive Class A3 Night Hawk 60078 BR Hornby 1:120 Scale TT. While the A1 was a fantastic locomotive that served its purpose as intended, it became clear reasonably quickly that some modifications could be made that would greatly improve its performance. These modifications however were too significant to avoid reclassifying the locomotives and as such the A1 Felstead 2743 was the first to be withdrawn from service only a handful of years after it was introduced, emerging from its shed in August 1928 as the first A3’Super Pacific. The newly designated A3 locomotives had an improved boiler, larger cylinders and a conversion from right to left hand drive. 27 of the class were built as A3 locomotives from the get go, with all of the in service A1 examples being converted before 1950, the last such example to undergo this transformation was the then BR numbered 60068 Sir Visto. Night Hawk first entered LNER service on the fairly pleasing 24th October 1924 as locomotive number 2577 as an A1 locomotive. Rebuilt in January 1944 to an A3, the locomotive would go in to be numbered 78, and then 60078 under BR. Night Hawk would go on to be withdrawn on the 22nd October 1962, almost making it a nice round 38 years in service, before being scrapped at Doncaster in 1963. Item Length – Without Packaging (cm).
