LMS Jinty 3F 0-6-0 Tanks

The LMS 3F 0-6-0T shunting engine. The Midland Railway had slowly evolved their 0-6-0 tank engines into a highly capable design suitabel for shutning, branch, local and even suburban passenger service. Henry Fowler added a Belpaire firebox and adopted the 3F Jinty as the LMS standard shunting and local service engine with 422 built between 1924 and 1931, including engines for the Somerset & Dorset Railway.
Summer 2022 and the Jintys are finally on their way! Container expected to land early September, delivery to us expected mid-September (best guess w/c 12 Sept). Factory-fitted DCC Sound models will also available to order once more!
The railways of the Northern Counties Committee in Northern Ireland were operated by the Midland Railway, becoming part of the LMS at the 'grouping' in 1923.
Two of the LMS standard 3F Jinty shunting engines were regauged to the Irish 5'3" gauge in 1944 for service on the NCC, becoming class Y locomotives 18 and 19. The engines worked around the Belfast docks, though were capable of hauling trains on main routes if needed. The engines passed to the ownership of the Ulster Transport Authority at nationalisation in 1948 and were withdrawn in 1960.
Number 19, originally LMS 16636 and 7553, is modelled in the later UTA lined black livery with Ulster Transport Authority emblems.

Model of the LMS standard class 3F 0-6-0 tank engines used on a wide range of duties including shunting, local goods and passenger, suburban passenger and all types of branch line services.
The Dapol model features fine detailing, a diecast chassis giving adequate weight for realistic train haulage and a smooth-running motor giving good slow running capability.
This model is finished as BR 47482 after being overhauled at the former LNER Darlington works from where it emerged carrying this unique livery for the ex-LMS 3F class with the locomotive numbers applied to the side tanks below the BR crests, as applied to many ex-LNER engines like the J72s..
Please Note - Dapol have advised an inadvertent decoration tool error has occurred on this model resulting in an errant cream square appearing on one side tank. A price reduction has been made to reflect this imperfect finish.

The Midland Railway had slowly improved their 0-6-0 tank engines, culminating in the Johnson 2441 class of 1899. LMS CME Henry Fowler added a Belpaire firebox and adopted the 3F Jinty as the LMS standard shunting and local service engine with 422 built between 1924 and 1931, including engines for the Somerset & Dorset Railway. The Jinty proved a very useful sized engine, capable of running at suitable speeds for local mainline and branch service with both goods and passenger trains. The engines could be found all over the LMS system, working as station pilots, shunting in yards, hauling local and suburban passenger trains and delivering the local pick-up goods. Many branch lines were served by 3F tanks as resident engines, or worked in with the branch goods.
The Dapol model is a highly detailed scale replica with careful tooling design allowing for many of the detail differences between individual locomotives to be replicated. The drive mechanism follows the successful pattern of Dapol's Terrier and 08 with a 5-pole motor and flywheel driving a gear train designed to give good low speed control and a realistically modest top speed.
