A fine example of this much sort after 4-6-2 Streamlined Bulleid Pacific Locomotive named “City of Wells” in BR Green livery running number 34092. This superb example of the City of Wells commenced production in 1985 and continued until the factory closure in 1992.
A number of variations were produced to include a “Khaki” and kit model, others with different lining. This later example which is only one of reported 650 ever made. What makes this locomotive special is the condition which is hard to find due to the limited production run by Wrenn.
This engine comes with a factory fitted Khaki tender very unusual indeed.
Note: the underneath is clearly stamped as follows PACKER NUMBER 3 PRODUCTION DATE CODE APPROX 1985
The SR West Country and Battle of Britain classes, collectively known as Light Pacific’s or informally as Spam Cans, are air-smoothed 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotives designed for the Southern Railway by its Chief Mechanical Engineer Oliver Bulleid.
NOTE: THIS ENGINE HAS BEEN DISPLAYED FROM NEW & PERIODICALLY TEST RUN. REMAINS IN FACTORY FRESH CONDITION!
