Description
[Product introduction]
- [Small England <Princess>/<Prince>] is a steam locomotive representing the Festiniog Railway, a preserved railway with a gauge of 597 mm, which is operated in Snowdonia National Park in England.
- Tendered tank steam locomotive with twin driving wheels manufactured by George England between 1863 and 1867, and is one of the oldest on the railway.
- It was mainly responsible for slate (slate) transportation and passenger transportation, but in 1939 passenger service was discontinued and the railway was abolished in 1946.
- When the Festiniog Railway was closed in 1946, it was painted green and [Princess] hauled the last slate train.
- In addition, [Prince], which was being overhauled at that time, was left as it was, but it became the first revived steam engine when the railway was resumed later.
- We will commercialize two cars, <Princess (green)>, which reproduces the paint color of 1945 just before the abolition of the Festiniog railway, and <Prince (green)>, which was repainted in the early 1960s after the revival.
- It is possible to tow 3 cars such as passenger cars and freight cars made by PECO on flat sections, so please enjoy it with your favorite formation.
