Era 4he first of the GWR 4073 ‘Castle’ Class locomotives was built in 1923 to the design of then- Chief Mechanical Engineer Charles Collett. The type was intended for express passenger trains and used the 4-6-0 wheel arrangement so favoured by the GWR and built on the success of the earlier Star Class which first entered traffic in 1907 albeit with a new, larger boiler making it more powerful and capable of handling the longest expresses.
Over a period of 27 years a total of 155 Castles were built by the GWR’s Swindon Works, joined between 1925 and 1940 by 16 more that were converted from older locomotives, mostly Stars. All 171 locomotives were named, usually after Castles in the west, but those rebuilt from Stars generally retained their original names although during their careers some Castles carried other names, including those of noble Earls and some named after RAF aircraft used during World War Two.

Our model of No. 4082 ‘Windsor Castle’ is finished in GWR Lined Green livery with Shirtbutton logos on the tender, but earlier in its life this locomotive took part in the centenary celebrations of the opening of the Stockton & Darlington Railway in 1925, and so we’ve selected ‘Windsor Castle’ for our Railway Celebrations range and the model will be supplied in special Railway Celebrations packaging.
