Offering an ex-display 00 gauge locomotive especially developed by “Hornby Model Railways” as part of their recent DCC series. This Southern Green S15 Class running no. 824 is in perfect cosmetic condition and running order having been bench tested.
The LSWR S15 class was a British 2-cylinder 4-6-0 freight steam locomotive designed by Robert W. Urie, based on his H15 class and N15 class locomotives.
The class had a complex build history, spanning several years of construction from 1920 to 1936. The first examples were constructed for the London and South Western Railway (LSWR), where they hauled freight trains to the south coast ports and further west to Exeter, as well as occasional passenger work in conjunction with their larger-wheeled N15 class counterparts.
Following the Grouping of railway companies in 1923, the LSWR became part of the Southern Railway. Richard Maunsell, increased the S15 class strength to 45 locomotives.
