Second Royal '47' From Locomotion

RECEIVED in time for Warley, the model arm of Locomotion is now offering a ‘OO’ gauge recreation of No. 47799 Prince Henry in the EWS version of its Royal claret livery (32-815NRM).

This follows on from the previous limited edition release of No. 47798 Prince William, which appeared back in 2013 and soon sold out, leading to regular calls for its running partner to also be modelled in conjunction with Bachmann.
