The Loco Works 41 products
In every model collection we receive we get some great models that either need finishing, require some TLC or are restoration projects. We take a lot of these to models shows around the country, however we're now bringing them to you online in our own version of 'The Loco Works'. We will endeavour to describe everything in the product listing about the item but please note, everything in this section is sold as a project, 'Spares or Repair' if you like, so eyes wide open, dive in and see what you can salvage! The small print: Items in 'The Loco Works' are void of our usual T&C's so if you're hoping for a working model we suggest you head into our other collections. Everything in this collection is sold as seen but feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Dapol Hawthorn Leslie 8 products
Hawthorn Leslie and Company was formed by the merger of the shipbuilder A. Leslie and Company in Hebburn with the locomotive works of R. and W. Hawthorn at St.Peter’s in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1886. The company manufactured locomotives to order for main line companies and later had a number of standard designs including 0-4-0 saddle tanks and fireless locomotives. In 1937 Robert Stephenson of Darlington amalgamated with the locomotive works at Forth Banks to form Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns Ltd. By this time Hawthorn Leslie had built 2,783 locomotives. The newly formed Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns became a subsidiary of the Vulcan Foundry in 1943 and Hawthorn’s 137-year connection with Forth Banks ended. The Dapol model is based on the 0-4-0 saddle tanks built between 1899 and 1924. They were produced in large numbers and continued in a variety of industrial uses (included Iron works, collieries and power stations) until the early to mid 1970’s. Over 10 locomotives have made it into various states of preservation.
