31-884ASF MR 3835 (4F) with Fowler Tender 43982 BR Black (Late Crest) Steam Locomotive - DCC Sound Point Motor Cardiff CantonThe LMS 4F was seen as the ultimate development of the humble 0 6 0 tender locomotive, and the Bachmann Branchline model is a faithful OO Scale replica of this iconic type. First borne by the Midland Railway (MR) in 1911, the 4Fs remained in traffic until the final days of BR steam and weve modelled a late survivor, No. 43982, which in 1964 received yellow cabside stripes to signal that the locomotive was prohibited to work on the West Coast Mainline
