R30274 LMS - Stanier 5MT 'Black 5' - 5047
Product Info
Known as ‘Black Fives’, or in Scotland as ‘Hikers’, Stanier’s 5MT 4-6-0s were one of the most numerous classes of locomotives built in the UK. Around 842 examples were built at a variety of locations, including the railway’s own works at Crewe, Derby and Horwich, plus private builders Vulcan Foundry and Armstrong Whitworth, the latter building the most with 327 machines.
No. 5047 was built at Vulcan Foundry, Newton-le-Willows in 1935 with a domeless boiler and spent most of its career in Scotland. It was withdrawn from St. Margaret’s shed, Edinburgh in July 1966 as BR No. 45047.
This model features a powerful 5-pole skew-wound motor, flickering firebox and working lamps and is fully compatible with the HM7000 21-pin decoder for full DCC, sound and lighting control.
