This is an excellent example of the Wrenn W2221 "Brecon Castle" in BR Experimental Green, running number 5023. Introduced by Wrenn Basildon in Period 3, this continued in limited production to 1992. This example is from the Period 3 era and is not "play worn" compared to many of its Period 3 counterparts.. Also to find an example in "near mint " condition is RARE today with all lining and transfers in place. Has seen limited layout use in my opinion.. As with all Period 3 Locomotives/tenders it has "metal rimmed" wheels throughout.
Comes complete with P3 box, tissue, packing rings, Hornby Dublo coupling conversion kit and blue instruction manual. The bottom of the inner box has the "Packer No 3" stamp in black ink denoting Period 3 issue (Circa 1978/9)
Condition of the Locomotive/tender/box is "near mint" for their age.
