LNER A3
Dapol are proud to continue to model one of the most celebrated locomotives of all time, the A3 Pacific. Over 70 A3s were built from the late 1920s to 1935. Only one survives into preservation, The Flying Scotsman, which was named after the train service between London and Edinburgh and was the first steam locomotive to be measured at speeds of over 100mph enabling the 392 mile trip to be completed in 8 hours. Innovations to aid this included a corridor connector and tunnel through an enlarged tender to enable crew replacement without stopping. Other A3 locomotives were named after high ranking railway officials or racehorses.

LNER A4
One of the most recognisable locomotives of all time and certainly one of the most handsome, the A4 locomotive was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley and came into service in 1935. Thirty five were made and all were named. Perhaps the most famous of all, Mallard, reached a speed of 126mph in 1938 and still holds the record for the worlds fastest steam locomotive. A4 Pacific locomotives were in service until the 1960s and several, including Mallard, survived into preservation.
