00 Gauge Hornby R3242 BR (Early) Black 2-6-0 K1 Class Locomotive DCC Ready New

00 Gauge Hornby R3242 BR (Early) Black 2-6-0 K1 Class 5P6F #62015 DCC Ready. Excellent condition and ready for track! The London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) Class K1 is a type of 2-6-0 (mogul) steam locomotive designed by Edward Thompson. Thompson preferred a simple two-cylinder design instead of Gresley's three cylinder one. The seventy K1s were intended to be split between the North Eastern Region of British Railways and the Eastern Region of British Railways. K1s proved to be useful and versatile engines. They worked extensively over ex-LNER territory but were chiefly associated with North East England and, following in the footsteps of their predecessors the K4s, the West Highland Line.
