K300 - BR Std Class 2 2-6-2t Nos 84000-84029

A post-Nationalisation development of H.G. Ivatt’s design for the LMS (see K302) the thirty locomotives of this class mostly saw service on the London Midland Region. Designed to be as straightforward as possible to build, the DJH Model Loco kit features a one-piece whitemetal boiler and firebox, a single casting for the footplate, etched brass cab, tank and bunker sides with fine rivet detail and a host of lost wax detail fittings including vacuum pipes, whistle and smokebox door handle. The bolt-together chassis is etched in sturdy 36 thou brass while the more delicate coupling/connecting rods, valve motion and slide bars are in nickel silver.

 

We recommend GB40L Motor/Gearbox.
