This
kit was specially designed for Acme. The kit will build all the variants
of the non-streamline 'Duchess/City' class locos.
Only double chimney versions at the moment,
Sloping smoke-box, and the 'Ivatt' versions included. The kit has Brass
Loco and Tender bodies with N/Silver chassises.
Castings in both Lost Brass Wax and White Metal,
this kit will build into a superb model. This was
one of the most loved engines of the LMS Staniers.
