Part of the third batch of 20 to be built in 1907, the locomotive was new to Cardiff Canton shed. It underwent several changes during its career, including the fitting of a superheated boiler in 1909 and outside steam pipes in December 1932. This model is presented in BR livery, the condition in which it operated through to its withdrawal in October 1953, by which point it was one of the last four still in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model was developed with the helpful guidance from the Didcot Railway Center who kindly gave us access to their archive of drawings and access to the Lady of Legend locomotive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saint class model features a powerful 5 pole skew wound motor, flickering firebox and is designed to be fully compatible with the HM7000 21-Pin decoder for full DCC and sound control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecific to R30403\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning number 2920\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBR Black livery.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiveted Churchward Tender\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLater style curved frame chassis design.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFluted diecast piston rods.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered superheated boiler\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLater Chimney Design\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLater safety Valve with Top Feeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Saint Class Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh detail OO Gauge model based on extensive research and original works drawings.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiecast Chassis and Running Plate.
