Why this kit matters

Introduced in 1934, the Stanier Black 5 was designed as a true mixed-traffic locomotive capable of hauling both passenger and freight trains with equal ease. With 842 examples built, it became one of the most numerous and successful steam locomotive classes in British history.

No. 44907 is one of the preserved members of the class and remains a familiar sight on heritage railways throughout the UK. Its enduring popularity reflects the Black 5’s reputation for reliability, power, and versatility.

How to use it

Place the locomotive and tender on powered OO gauge track and operate using your DC or DCC control system if fitted. Pair it with BR Mk1 coaches or mixed freight wagons for authentic late steam-era operation.
