Withdrawals began in 1959 with 605'Thane of Fife', followed by'Lord President' and'Cock O' the North in 1960. Thompson Class A2-2'Cock O the North' is the latest detailed locomotive to be produced with Hornby's innovative steam generator functionality where the locomotive creates realistic steam from the chimney of the model created by water vapour. Add this newly tooled design to your model railway today.
This locomotive also comes fitted with sound. It has a series of sounds true to this class of locomotive, and the sounds and steam effects are synced to the model's movement, creating a realistic'chugging'. For 2025, this model has gone through several tooling updates. These include the addition of a Gen 2 steam generator, which improves steam output and eliminates water clogging, the addition of an optical speed sensor for accurate wheel speed detection, a flickering firebox and a quick-release loco to tender connection.
