LNER, A3 Class, No. 45 'Lemberg' (diecast footplate and flickeirng firebox) - Era 3 - R30087

PRODUCT INFORMATION
LNER No. 2544 ?Lemberg ? was built at Doncaster Works in July 1924 as a member of the A1 Class. In 1927 'Lemberg' became one of the first of the class to be rebuilt as an A3 Class locomotive. In 1946 ?Lemberg ? was renumbered under Thompson ?s renumbering scheme, becoming No. 45 before being renumbered again upon nationalisation of the railways, becoming BR No. 60045. As with other A3s, a double chimney was fitted to ?Lemberg ? in 1958 followed by smoke deflectors to combat the resultant reduction in visibility caused by the softer exhaust blast. After a long service, the locomotive was withdrawn in 1964.
