This fine PERIOD 4 Wrenn model W2225A is of the Standard 8F Class locomotive in LMS Black, running number 8223.
This model locomotive is one of the few which spand all four periods of production Wrenn Model Railways undertook at Basildon Essex. This example was in production from 1980-1989.It came with either gold shaded red or standard yellow transfers. There were 400 of the red shaded transfer models made and far less of the latter currently on offer!!
Alternative examples and a LIMITED EDITION were made during the other periods. As all model railway enthusiast know, this is the “WORKHORSE” for freight operations on any layout. Hence why they are very seldom found NOT play worn and even rarer boxed.
The locomotive is complete in every respect and includes original PERIOD FOUR BOX. The underneath clearly stamped in red Packer no.2. Comes complete with instruction manual and usual holding rings and tissue! Make sure YOUR layout is NOT without!
