Originally built as the 48xx Class these 0-4-2T were built for branchline working, frequently hauling either a pair of 'B' sets or one or two Autocoaches. They also served as useful pickup goods locomotives.The two versions of this locomotive were launched in 2007. The early version will be as built by the G.W.R. without a top feed or whistle shroud. The later version will have the fitted top feed and all the relevant pipework along the top of the boiler. The whistle and shroud will also be fitted to the late model. The bunker steps, fitted post war, will be supplied with the early model for those wanting to model the later model without topfeed in BR service but will not be fitted to the model. These bunker steps will be fitted though to the late 14xx We also can fully finish the locomotive in our workshops to the customers required livery including shed and number plates. Liveries will include G.W.R. (Choice of logos ) B R lined green with either early or late crest and BR lined black. Details of the painting fee can be found in the painting section.. Shown here are two painted examples of the 14xx completed for customers. 1401 (The Titfield Thunderbolt) and 1466 in BR lined green.

We are now down to the last eight Autotanks. There are six fully finished models available of the shelf which can be found in the fully finished section of this website plus two currently in the workshops that can be finished in any BR livery with the customer's choice of number and shed. We will not sell the last two locos in plain brass

We have no more and as the factory has now closed we cannot manufacture any. First come, first served on these last few.
