Why this kit matters

The LNER Class A4 locomotives, designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, transformed British rail travel with their distinctive streamlined styling and high-speed capabilities. No. 2512 Silver Fox was one of the first four A4s introduced in 1935 and carried the elegant silver-grey livery used on the famous Silver Jubilee express.

This 90th Anniversary Collection edition celebrates both the enduring legacy of the A4 Pacifics and Hornby Dublo’s important role in British railway modelling history.

How to use it

Place the locomotive and tender on OO gauge track and pair it with streamlined LNER coaches for a striking 1930s express train. Operates on analogue DC layouts and can be upgraded with a compatible DCC decoder for digital control.

This is a detailed scale model intended for collectors and hobbyists. It is not a toy.
