Information & Sample Instruction Sheets
LNER Class J35, 0-6-0 Freight Loco

  PROTOTYPE. The North British Railway built 76 locomotives of this class between 1906 and 1913 to satisfy the requirement for a more powerful 0-6-0 for heavy freight work. From 1923 the LNER started to fit superheaters and this alternative is provided for in the kit.

  70 locomotives passed into BR ownership and the last member of the class was withdrawn in 1962. They worked throughout the NBR network on heavy freight and in summertime were also used on main line passenger work.

  KIT. The body and tender is mainly brass with a nickel silver chassis. A nice level of detail including backhead is provided. There is a good representation of valve gear and motion between the frames.

- Optional Plunger Electrical Pickups -
If these are desired as an alternative to the wire wiper pickups that are included in the kit. I would recommend the type produced by Slater's and provision is made in the kit chassis for fitting these (Slater's Cat No 7157).
