Quantity:
Latest in the longstanding Book Of series, in FIVE PARTS to adequately cover the vast number of locomotives involved.
The well known LMS Jinty 0-6-0Ts originally known as the standard shunting tanks came to number over 400, built over the years 1924-1931. The origin of the name is subject to various theories but in effect is lost in antiquity. The Tri-ang model of a Jinty, the famous 47606, was one of the best selling OO scale toy/models of all time and was often the first engine encountered by small boys who went on to enthuse over locomotives and railways for the rest of their lives.
By John Jennison -
The LMS employed innumerable 2-6-4Ts, evolving from parallel boiler Fowler engines through updated Stanier taper boiler versions through to Fairburns final development. Between them they amounted to over 600 in total.
