HORNBY R2169 BR 4-6-2 'CLAN LINE' 35028 MERCHANT NAVY CLASS DCC FITTED EXCELLENT

Description: 35028 was built in Eastleigh Works in 1948. After a few weeks running in, it was allocated first to Dover and then to London, from where it worked heavy trains on the trunk routes to the South East Channel ports, frequently working the prestige expresses, Golden Arrow and the Night Ferry. After rebuilding in 1959, it was allocated to Nine Elms shed, from where it headed such trains as the Bournemouth Belle and the Atlantic Coast Express. ‘Clan Line’ was bought by the Merchant Navy Locomotive Preservation Society from British Railways and it was the first Merchant Navy class locomotive to operate on the mainline in preservation. On 7 December 2018, Clan Line hauled the British Royal Train, taking the Prince of Wales to Cardiff in Wales. This locomotive has been part of my personal collection of British outline locos and equipment for over 20 years and is in Excellent condition. Includes instructions as well as the accessory side rods. (Please be careful with the fitted accessories as they are easily dislodged - I just refitted the front loco steps). It has been in storage for most of the past 10 years and recently test run. Made in China version with 5-pole loco drive. I personally installed the DCC chip (code 28) and it runs perfectly. The tender is fitted with a push-fit hornby type coupling and I have included a North American 'Kadee-type' for those who prefer the more realistic method of coupling. Please examine the photos carefully and contact me if you have any questions. Now downsizing and selling my collections and this is the next to go.
