(10% Off Sale)
Production Details:
At the end of January 1935, a Kychap
double blastpipe and chimney was fitted to the W1, which
eventually required the fitting of a smoke lifting cowl
for better smoke clearance. On August 21, 1935. 10000
was returned to Darlington for the last time in its
original form, having covered another 20,823 miles since
June 1934. 10000 had proved to be extremely capable, but
it was also unreliable, as out of the 1,888 days in
service, the locomotive spent 1,105 at Darlington Works
alone. Tech Specs:
