Hornby R30483 OO BR Battle of Britain Class 34057 'Biggin Hill' & BR West Country 34006 'Bude' Steam Locomotive Train Pack

The Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway was a famous route that connected the English Channel at Bournemouth with Bristol Channel at Burnham and the Midlands via Bath.

It came under the joint ownership of the LSWR and Midland railways in 1875 and, subsequently, the SR and LMS at the Grouping in 1923. Through services ceased under the infamous ‘Beeching Axe’ on 7th March 1966. The line was known for its quirky mix of locomotive types, including Southern ‘Pacifics’ such as the two featured in this special anniversary pack.

Both models are offered in late BR livery, but in their original form which survived closure of the line by a further year.
