Hornby OO Scale GWR - Saint Class - 2999 Lady of Legend Steam Locomotive [R30404]
This is the Hornby OO Scale GWR - Saint Class - 2999 Lady of Legend Steam Locomotive [R30404]
As none of the original Saint Class survived into preservation, the last being withdrawn in 1953, the Great Western Society purchased GWR Hall Class No. 4942 Maindy Hall from Barry scrapyard in 1974 with the intention of rebuilding it as a Saint. The Hall was a direct development of the Saint, No. 2925 Saint Martin being used as its prototype in 1924 by Charles B. Collett, Churchwards successor as Chief Mechanical Engineer at the GWR. Work on the conversion finally got underway in 1995 and, in April 2019, No. 2999 Lady of Legend made its first moves in steam at Didcot Railway Centre.
