Description
R30407 Hornby Great Eastern Railway – Class J15 – 564
This J15 0-6-0 was completed by the Great Eastern Railway in February 1912 as Y14 Class No. 564 and, after a service life of 50 years and six months – which spanned ownership by the LNER and BR – it entered preservation upon withdrawal as BR No. 65462 in September 1962.
Owned by the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway Society, it has been restored to steaming condition at the North Norfolk Railway, though it is currently under overhaul. The model is finished in its as preserved condition as GER No. 564, complete with Westinghouse air pump on the smokebox side.
Our replica OO scale model features NEM couplings, a five-pole skew-wound motor, and an 8-pin socket ready to accept a decoder when you want to upgrade to DCC control.
