Since the early-1940s the War Department Austerity Saddle Tank has been a common sight on Britain’s railways – playing a vital role in the Allied victory of World War Two before becoming a mainstay of industrial operations and, more recently, heritage railways. Unveiled as part of the EFE Rail range, the WD Austerity Saddle Tank is a fitting subject as the brand’s first N scale steam locomotive.
This all-new model is a high-fidelity miniature recreation of the prototype, sporting details such as metal handrails, sand boxes and pipes, brake hangers and separately fitted brake rigging, and a decorated cab backhead. Daylight is visible beneath the boiler, just as it should be, below which a representation of the inside motion has been moulded onto the chassis. The model is powered by a coreless motor, with electrical pickup from all wheels whilst each axle runs in a pair of separate metal bearings. DCC provision is by way of a 6 pin decoder socket located in the cab, however due to the limited space available a very small decoder is required for this model.
The National Coal Board was a major operator of Austerity Saddle Tanks after the war and this example is finished as No. 12 of the National Coal Board Kent; decorated in an attractive blue livery with yellow lining.
