The first member of the 'A4' Class to enter service in September 1935, the locomotive worked on the prestigious 'Silver Jubilee' trains between London King's Cross and Newcastle. It was repainted in LNER Garter Blue in December 1937, but that was short-lived, as 'A4s' were painted plain black during the Second World War, and at the same time had their side skirting removed, though the blue livery was reapplied after the war. Marking 90 years since its record-breaking debut, the Hornby Dublo LNER Class A4 2509 'Silver Link' a fitting addition to any railway enthusiasts layout. Expertly designed, the chassis and body of this impressive model is manufactured out of die-cast metal and is fitted with a 5 pole skew wound motor for superior traction and pulling power.

The model has a flickering firebox and is DCC Ready with a 21-pin socket, allowing easy conversion for digital control. Supplied complete with an accessories pack including driver and fireman figures, this Hornby Dublo model combines heritage charm with modern features.
