This kit builds the 1933 Gresley designed LNER 60' TPO. Two versions of the kit are available, one in the original form, the other as modified by British Rail.
The kits contain etched sides, floor trusses and detailing elements, white metal ends, aluminium roof profile, white metal and plastic detailing, brass buffers. You will need some fine mesh (for the net) and a pair of Gresley bogies to complete this kit.
The sides of this kit are complex because of the depths of the doors and net area. In addition to get the correct LNER profile the sides are two parts, with one sitting on a recess in the other. This makes this a challenging kit to build and not one we would recommend unless you have reasonable prior experience of etched kit building
