With the class being mainly used for freight duties, it was more likely to see a 9F not all sparkling clean but steam marked and dirt covered. This model captures the workmanlike appearance of the prototype-áand would certainly look in keeping on any steam layout of the period. Includes sprung buffers and powered by a ringfield motor located in the tender.
