Graham Farish 372-065SF N Gauge 4F with Fowler Tender 43931 BR Black (Late Crest) [W] DCC Sound Fitted. Autumn 2022 British Railway Announcements. We are delighted to present the Midland Railway 3835 Class, better known as the 4F, as. 43931 in weathered BR Black with Late Crest. Recently upgraded with a Next18 DCC interface and a pre-fitted speaker - allowing this.

Model to be produced - the Graham Farish MR 3835 model features a wealth of detail, with many separately fitted parts including the fine metal handrails, safety valves and whistle, and even a representation of the inside valve gear engraved into the chassis and visible below the boiler. Whilst relatively straightforward, full attention has been paid to the livery application which is achieved using authentic logos and fonts whilst the detailed cab interior is brought to life with pipework, fittings and gauges all present and decorated appropriately. Weathered BR Black (Late Crest) livery. Fowler Tender with Coal Rails.

Fitted with a Zimo MS590N18 Sound Decoder. Designed by Henry Fowler for the Midland Railway (MR), the 3835 Class was first introduced in 1911. After the Grouping in 1923, the London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) inherited all 192 locomotives from the MR (and later the five S&DJR examples when it absorbed that company in 1930) and gave the locos the designation Class 4F. The LMS commenced construction of further 4Fs, much to the same design as the 3835 Class, although the LMS-built locos were left hand drive whereas the original Midland machines were right hand drive.

The 4F was seen as the ultimate development of the 0-6-0 tender locomotive and the type epitomised the British goods engine. The LMS went on to build 575 examples between 1924 and 1941 and all of them, plus the 197 Midland-built locos, entered BR stock following Nationalisation in 1948.

Withdrawals did not commence until 1954, with the 3835 Class all gone by 1965 (the last 4Fs would survive only a year longer), however one MR-built locomotive has survived into preservation, No. 43924 is also notable as being the first locomotive to leave the Woodham Brothers Scrapyard in Barry, South Wales, when it departed in September 1968 for its new home at the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway where the loco is still based today.
