This model represents one of just ten examples of the J52 (formerly GNR J13) built by Robert Stephenson & Co at its works in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Originally numbered ‘1225’, after the grouping it was repainted and received the LNER number ‘4225’ in November 1926, which remained until the LNER’s renumbering scheme of 1946 when it became No. ‘8824’ and, subsequently, BR No. ‘68824’. The locomotive lasted in service until May 1959, a creditable 60 years in traffic.
