They were initially classified 7F, but this was later changed to the more familiar 8F. On the outbreak of the Second World War, the design was chosen to become the country's standard freight design, reprising the role the GCR Class 8K had in the First World War. The War Department had 208 8Fs built by Beyer Peacock and North British Locomotive Company and requisitioned 51 more. Stanier 8F production for the WD continued until 1943, when the cheaper WD Austerity 2-8-0 was introduced. Production for British domestic use continued until 1946.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSome 331 locomotives were built for the London Midland and Scottish Railway between 1935-45. A further 245 were built by the London and North Eastern Railway, Great Western Railway and Southern Railway in 1943-45 for LMS stock, though mostly retained on loan by the other railways during the war. The LNER also purchased 68 Stanier 8Fs for its own use in 1944-46, classifying them O6, though these were also sold to the LMS after the war. As noted above, 51 LMS locomotives were requisitioned by the WD in 1941, but 31 WD locomotives were subsequently purchased by the LMS in 1943 (including 8 of the requisitioned engines).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e624 8Fs passed into British Railways ownership when Britain's railways were nationalised in 1948. A further 39 (10 requisitioned) were purchased from MEF stock in 1948, and a final 3 (1 requisitioned) from the Longmoor Military Railway in 1957, bringing the total to 666. The 8Fs were concentrated on the London Midland Region, but were also allocated to former LMS sheds on other regions. Despite some having operated in Scotland by the LMS, they were not common on the Scottish Region under BR ownership as the later WD 'Austerity' 2-8-0 and 2-10-0 types were used instead. The 8Fs were successful and durable locomotives in BR service, with all 666 locomotives surviving until 1960 and routine withdrawals not beginning until 1964. The first to go in 1960 was 48616, followed two years later by 48009. 48773–48775 (the former Longmoor Military Railway locomotives which were the only 8Fs on the Scottish Region) were also withdrawn in 1962, but these were reinstated into London Midland Region stock in 1963. The remaining 664 were withdrawn between 1964 and 1968, with 150 surviving to the last year of steam on BR.  Fourteen examples survive in preservation including some repatriated from Turkey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39383668326452,"sku":"372-160","price":152.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/products\/Screenshot2021-09-28at08.37.03.png?v=1632814711"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-372-428-wd-austerity-3085-lner-black-lner-original","title":"Graham Farish 372-428 WD Austerity 3085 LNER Black (LNER Original)","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe War Department (WD) \"Austerity\" 2-8-0 is a type of heavy freight steam locomotive that was introduced in 1943 for war service. A total of 935 were built, making this one of the most numerous classes of British locomotive. The Austerity 2-8-0 was based on the LMS Class 8F, which until that point had been the government's standard design. Various modifications were made to the 8F design by R.A. Riddles in order to prioritise low cost over design life. The North British Locomotive Company of Glasgow built 545 and Vulcan Foundry 390. After the war, 200 were sold to the LNER, who classified them as \"Class O7\" and numbered them 3000–3199. In 1948, 533 more were purchased by the British Transport Commission. With the formation of British Railways, the 733 locomotives were renumbered into the 90000–90732 series, and of these 123 remained in service at the start of 1967. Two locomotives continued to be held in WD stock, seeing service on the Longmoor Military Railway in Hampshire.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56534593372533,"sku":"372-610","price":197.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at14.46.08.png?v=1767019671"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-lner-v2-no-4791-lner-lined-green-koyli-372-611","title":"Graham Farish LNER V2 4843 'Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry' (Lined Green) 372-611","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome twenty years since the V2 was first produced in N scale by Graham Farish, this all-new model of the LNER Mixed Traffic icon is made to standards not even dreamt of twenty years ago.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56534613295477,"sku":"372-611","price":197.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at14.58.17.png?v=1767020613"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-lner-v2-br-lined-black-60845-early-emblem-372-612sf","title":"Graham Farish LNER V2 BR Lined Black 60845 (Early Emblem) 372-612SF (DCC Sound)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome twenty years since the V2 was first produced in N scale by Graham Farish, this all-new model of the LNER Mixed Traffic icon is made to standards not even dreamt of twenty years ago.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56534629417333,"sku":"372-612SF","price":296.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at15.08.23.png?v=1767020989"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-lner-v2-br-green-60845-st-peters-school-372-614","title":"Graham Farish LNER V2 60847 'St Peter's School' BR Lined Green (Late Crest) 372-614","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome twenty years since the V2 was first produced in N scale by Graham Farish, this all-new model of the LNER Mixed Traffic icon is made to standards not even dreamt of twenty years ago.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56534663790965,"sku":"372-614","price":197.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at15.15.33.png?v=1767021429"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-lner-v2-no-4791-lner-lined-green-original-372-610sf","title":"Graham Farish LNER V2 No.4791 LNER Lined Green (Original) 372-610SF (DCC Sound)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome twenty years since the V2 was first produced in N scale by Graham Farish, this all-new model of the LNER Mixed Traffic icon is made to standards not even dreamt of twenty years ago.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57082552746357,"sku":"372-610SF","price":296.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at14.46.08.png?v=1767019671"},{"product_id":"graham-farish-lner-v2-4843-kings-own-yorkshire-light-infantry-lined-green-372-611sf","title":"Graham Farish LNER V2 4843 'Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry' (Lined Green) 372-611SF","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome twenty years since the V2 was first produced in N scale by Graham Farish, this all-new model of the LNER Mixed Traffic icon is made to standards not even dreamt of twenty years ago.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services.

The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too.

Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service.

Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again.

To haul these services a top link locomotives were required and at first, A1 and A3 Class ‘Pacifics’ were employed along with the LNER’s K3 2-6-0s, although the K3s were not suited to the high speeds required for the ‘Green Arrow’ services. With the Pacifics required for passenger work, in 1935 the LNER announced its intention to develop a new locomotive for long-distance, mixed traffic work and the following year the first of Sir Nigel Gresley’s V2 Class entered traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the convention of naming a locomotive after the named train it was principally employed on, the first V2 was named ‘Green Arrow’. Another convention not followed by the V2 however was that of the wheel arrangement, with the V2 using the 2-6-2 ‘Prairie’ wheel arrangement which in Great Britian was generally the preserve of tank locomotives, with other ‘Big Four’ railway companies generally using the 4-6-0 formation for their larger mixed traffic machines. The 2-6-2 wheel arrangement accommodated a wide firebox, the same type used so successfully on Gresley’s Pacifics and P1\/P2 ‘Mikados’, and whilst visually the V2s had many similarities to the Pacifics, their similarities to the P2s were in many ways their crowning features, including 6ft 2in driving wheels, v-fronted cab, and monobloc cylinder castings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour more locomotives emerged soon after ‘Green Arrow’, and such was their success that a further 179 were quickly ordered. Despite the outbreak of the Second World War, construction continued of what was to become an important contributor to the war effort. Whilst services such as the ‘Green Arrow’ goods trains were suspended in wartime, the V2s were employed plentifully moving goods, people, mail, parcels, troops and munitions far and wide. Their performances on lengthened passenger trains were notable, often hauling trains much heavier than what the class had been designed to haul, and at speed too. Such was their contribution to the British transport network between 1939 and 1945 that the V2s later became known to many as ‘the engines that won the war’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce peacetime returned, the V2s went back to hauling fast freight and passenger services across much of the LNER network. Many were deployed to the former Great Central routes and in Scotland and in both areas, the Class would become a stalwart until the final days of steam. Notable modifications made to the V2s during their operational years include the replacement of the monobloc casting with three separate cylinders – 71 engines were so treated between 1956 and the final withdrawals in 1966. Several types of chimneys were experimented with; one locomotive received a lipless single chimney and three others trialled separate versions including a double blast pipe borrowed from the LMS ‘Royal Scot’ 4-6-0s. Ultimately, the Kylchap exhaust was trialled and proved successful, so much so that it was recommended the entire class should be fitted, however the onset of dieselisation meant only five locomotives received the new exhaust and associated double chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithdrawals began in 1962 and in December 1966 the final V2 was taken out of service. Class pioneer ‘Green Arrow’ was one of the first locomotives to be withdrawn, however its future had already been secured as it was selected for preservation as part of the national collection and following withdrawal, ‘Green Arrow’ was restored at Doncaster Works. Returning to the mainline during the 1970s, ‘Green Arrow’ went on to be a popular performer on both the national network and heritage railways until 2008 when she was withdrawn from service with a boiler failure. Notwithstanding the work required to repair the boiler, it is a crack in the monobloc cylinder casting which is the greatest challenge that would need to be overcome if the locomotive were to be restored and returned to steam once again. Today, ‘Green Arrow’ can be found on display in the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum in its birthplace, Doncaster, where it is on loan from the National Railway Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graham Farish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57082593018229,"sku":"372-614SF","price":296.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-29at15.15.33.png?v=1767021429"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/collections\/download_2_5ada65d7-38be-4eea-97c6-413e6fe71afb.png?v=1642199546","url":"https:\/\/malcsmodels.co.uk\/collections\/graham-farish-steam-locomotives\/graham-farish.oembed?page=3","provider":"Malcs Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
