31-741A Bachmann MR 1532 (1P) Tank number 1370 - LMS Black

The Midland Class 1532, and other 0-4-4Ts that were collectively classified as 1Ps by the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS), formed the backbone of the LMS’s local and light passenger duties for decades, and now the OO scale model of this ornate prototype returns to the Bachmann Branchline range.

The LMS embarked on a programme to replace the 1P’s original round-top boilers with Belpaire boilers and No. 1370 is one such locomotive to have undergone this treatment. A miniature marvel, the Branchline model is packed with an impressive level of detail wherever you look. A significant proportion of the 1P is made from diecast metal, with fine engraving and detailing, which is complemented by precision moulded components capturing every aspect of the prototype in high fidelity. Sprung buffers are fitted to each bufferbeam, whilst in the cab, the locomotive controls are faithfully captured and decorated authentically.

A vast tooling suite caters for the many variations seen on the real locomotives throughout their careers, whilst the technical specification is equally impressive, employing a coreless motor and with a Next18 DCC Decoder socket, firebox lighting and pre-fitted speaker – SOUND FITTED models are available too. The livery application is the icing on the cake and whilst the LMS black livery is far from complex, the paint application is deep and consistent upon which sits the vibrant numbers and lettering, replicated using advance printing techniques to capture every element of decoration.

MIDLAND CLASS 1532 (1P) HISTORY

The Class 1532 was designed by Samuel W. Johnson for the Midland Railway (MR) and 65 locomotives were built at the MR’s Derby Works between 1881 and 1886. Tank engines with a 0-4-4 wheel formation were the Midland’s principle suburban and branch line passenger locomotive and so the 1532s were joined by several other very similar classes; by 1900 the railway had a fleet of more than 200 0-4-4Ts of comparable types.

The Class 1532s were built across five batches and two of the batches included locomotives fitted with condensing gear, in total ten examples were equipped in order to work through the Metropolitan Railway tunnels around London. Other locomotives were fitted with push-pull gear, evidenced by the additional apparatus fitted to the smokebox and the extra vacuum pipes adorning the bufferbeams, along with cab roof fittings that allowed the whistle to be controlled remotely.

Upon Grouping in 1923 the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) inherited 62 locomotives which they classified as 1Ps. Two examples had already been withdrawn by the MR and a third was sold to the Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway (SDJR), this would be absorbed into LMS stock in 1930.

Modifications were made to the locomotives throughout their careers, with the fitting of different chimneys, smokeboxes and smokebox doors, but a major change occurred under LMS ownership when they began fitting Belpaire boilers in place of the original round-top versions. As a result, the cab fronts were rebuilt with the cab windows moved higher up, and the new boilers were complemented by new domes and safety valves.

Whilst the condensing locomotives were concentrated in and around London, the rest of the fleet found use across the Midland Railway network, and their geographical spread continued under LMS and then British Railways (BR) ownership. The 1532s were withdrawn gradually by the LMS and at the time of Nationalisation in 1948, just 14 members of the original 65 Class 1532s remained. By this time however, some of the MR’s similar designs had become collectively known as 1532s, so in total BR inherited 62 1Ps from the LMS, of which 34 were considered as 1532s. Withdrawals continued under BR until the final 1P was retired in 1959 and sadly none were preserved.
