Lionheart Trains O Gauge Ivatt 2MT

Lionheart Trains O Gauge Ivatt 2MT

Lionheart Trains has proudly unveiled its brand-new LMS Class 2 2-6-2 tank engine at the Guild O Gauge Wigan Winter Show 2024 — and we’re thrilled to announce that pre-orders are now open at Footplate!

Designed by H.G. Ivatt and built between 1946 and 1952, these distinctive “Prairie” locomotives were introduced to replace ageing branch-line engines. Their well-balanced 2-6-2 wheelbase made them ideal for mixed-traffic duties, while Ivatt’s clever engineering touches — including self-cleaning ashpans and smokeboxes — made them a favourite with crews and shed staff alike.

After the first ten examples were built by the LMS, British Railways expanded the class to 130 locomotives, allocating them across the London Midland, Southern and Western Regions, where they could be seen hauling both passenger and goods trains right up until 1967.

Four examples survive today — and all are still operational, testament to just how capable and well-loved these locomotives were.

🔥 Secure yours now — Footplate pre-orders are open!
Don’t miss your chance to add this iconic Ivatt design to your O Gauge collection.
