HORNBY LMS PRINCESS ROYAL CLASS TURBOMOTIVE 6202 C1937

This was the third prototype of the LMS Princess Royal Class, utilising the same frames as the rest of the class, but having steam turbines in place of conventional cylinders. Completed at Crewe Works in June 1935, the locomotive was used on the West Coast Main Line express and proved to be more economical and eliminated hammer blow to the track. However, it was more complexe to drive and when a turbine failure occured in 1949 it was laid up before being rebuilt as a conversional locomotive, numbered 46202 and named 'Princess Anne', in 1952.
