The next model from our One:One Collection is the elegant BR Royal Scot Class 'Royal Scot' locomotive. With sprung metal buffers and NEM tension lock couplings, this steam locomotive model is DCC ready - just add a 21 pin decoder. 

First of the class, 6100 ‘Royal Scot’ entered service with the LMS in 1927. Designed by Henry Fowler as a three-cylinder express locomotive with parallel boiler, a lack of capacity at its locomotive works meant construction of the first 50 was awarded to the North British Locomotive Co. in Glasgow. The remaining 20 were built at Derby Works. 

No. 6100 swapped identities with the much newer 6152 ‘King’s Dragoon Guardsman’ (built in 1930) in order to attend the ‘Century of Progress Exhibition’, Chicago, in 1933. As BR 46100, ‘Royal Scot’ was rebuilt with a taper boiler to its present condition in 1950. Withdrawn in 1962, it returned to the main line in 2016, but is currently stored at the One:One Collection, Margate.
