This is a great opportunity to own the much sought after W2266A "City of Wells" Bullied in BR Green, running number 34092. This is the Non Golden Arrow version which is RARE compared to its Golden Arrow counterpart. Although 626 were produced by Wrenn, Basildon during Period 4, based on my experience as a collector I believe the number is far less.
Many examples are "play worn" this is not and has seen minimal layout use in my opinion. This also has the slightly later brighter orange lining on tender and cab side which was used on the later P4 issues of this Locomotive.
The Locomotive/Tender comes in a Period 4 (green hue) box, and include packing rings, tissue and blue Instruction Manual. The bottom of the inner box is stamped "Packer No 3 08417" denoting 17th Week,, 4th month, 1985 as correct Basildon issue date..
Locomotive/Tender/box are "near mint to mint " , considering age.. I do not believe you will find a better example.
