The D1 Class selection traces the locomotive through several stages of its working life. LBSCR examples include No. 35 ‘Southwark’, No. 232 ‘Lewes’ and No. 279 ‘Tunbridge Wells’ in Improved Engine Green, together with locomotives finished in Umber and Marsh Umber. Southern Railway modellers are also well catered for, with lined and unlined green examples alongside No. 2627 in Unlined Malachite. The collection extends into later and more unusual identities too, including CMHW No. 1 ‘Whittingham’ in Lined Olive Green and BR No. 32234 in Malachite.
