2001 "COCK O' THE NORTH" as built with rotary cam valve gear in 1934 at Doncaster to haul the heavy sleeper trains between Edinburgh and Aberdeen. Before entering service running in turns were run out of Kings Cross as part of a programme of testing that included trials at the Vitry test facility in France. The loco was also widely exhibited by LNER for which purpose wheels and valve gear were burnished to a high polish. It is this condition that our model is presented. Spoked wheels to tender.

2001 "COCK O' THE NORTH" as rebuilt in1938 with standard conjugated valve gear and A4 style front end treatment. Wheels now with black painted rims with white lining and blackened rods. Spoked tender wheels retained.

2002 "EARL MARISCHAL" as rebuilt in 1936. Originally built with similar front end styling to that on 2001 but with the by now conventional conjugated valve gear which gave a softer blast. This meant that smoke clearance was always a problem. A number of modifications were tried but were unsuccessful until the A4 style nose was fitted and it is in this condition that our model is portrayed. Blackened rods. Disc wheels to tender.

2003 "LORD PRESIDENT" as built in 1936. The first of the class to be built with streamlined tender with consequent changes to the cab of the locomotive to suit. Blackened rods. Disc wheels to tender.

2004 "MONS MEG" built in 1936. Our model is presented in 1937 condition after the streamlined fairing on the tender top was cut back to allow for increased coal capacity. Blackened rods. Disc wheels to tender.

We regret we have no plans to offer :

• 2002 as built because of the number of changes that were made in a very short time
• 2005 "THANE OF FIFE" due to single chimney
• 2006 "WOLF OF BADENOCH" due to longer combustion chamber
