ELEGANT STEAM
London & North Eastern Railway
61ft 6ins Full Brake - No 1933. A very common vehicle used all over the LNER system. Designed by Sir Nigel Gresley in the late twenties and thirties there were several variations to the layout of the doors. They were, as usual on the LNER, teak bodied vehicles and very long lived, several lasting well into BR days. A BR model layout using these these vehicles liveried in early BR colours would not be out of place.
