BUILT TO RUN ON THE SOUTHERN REGION

PAINTED BLACK WITH A SOUTHERN GREEN LINING AND GOLD "SOUTHERN - NO688" ON THE TENDER
THE CAB INTERIOR INCLUDES DRIVER AND FIREMAN WHICH IS TYPICAL OF MY FATHERS WORK.

THE TENDER IS FULL OF COAL AND HAS TOOLS LAID OUT ON THE TOP TOO. 

PREDOMINATELY A FREIGHT LOCO THE 700 CLASS WAS BUILT IN GLASGOW FOR THE LSWR (SR), WOULD HAVE BEEN FOUND ON THE MARSHALLING YARDS OF FELTHAM (OUR HOMETOWN) AND THIS MODEL WAS THE FIRST OF THIS CLASS TO BE WITHDRAWN BY BR IN 1957

IT'S BUILT FROM A WESTWARD KIT AND STILL IN IT'S ORIGINAL BOX WHICH BEING AROUND 20+ YEARS OLD AND MOST OF THAT TIME STORED AWAY IN A CUPBOARD HAS A LITTLE WEAR, BUT THE ACTUAL LOCOMOTIVE ITSELF LOOKS GREAT STILL AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
