Hornby R1122 (OO) Ex GER, B12/3 No.8528 in London North Eastern Railway Apple Green 

Runs nicely, and great first ‘big’ loco for a beginner of child. The model is Modern ish incarnation of the Tri-ang tooling of the B12/3. The tender is fitted with the sound scratcher, but it has been moved out of position and so runs silently. The only cosmetic issue is that the hand rails are a little oxidised. The model was split from a set

History Note: 8528 was never a rebuilt into a B12/3 as the model depicts. She was one of the B12/0 to retain is GER Belpare boilers and was moved by the LNER away from her native East Anglia to Kittybrewster Depot in Aberdeen to work on the former Great North of Scotland Network. She was withdrawn and Scrapped in 1953, as one of the last S69 / B12 in near original condition when withdrawn.
