**(Image: A stunning, almost-photorealistic depiction of the LNER Gresley A4 locomotive, gleaming in BR Blue, potentially pulling a passenger train through a picturesque English countryside scene.)** **Experience the Legend: The Gresley A4 - A Timeless Icon of Speed and Splendor** Step back in time and witness the birth of a legend! The LNER Gresley A4 locomotive isn’t just a model; it’s a rolling testament to ingenuity, ambition, and the pursuit of unparalleled speed. Born from the vision of Sir Nigel Gresley, the brilliant Chief Mechanical Officer of the London & North Eastern Railway, the A4 was designed to redefine travel in the 1930s. Inspired by the sleek, high-speed German diesel locomotive, the Fliegende Hamburger, Gresley dared to dream of a streamlined British express that would surpass even the fastest road and air travel. He meticulously engineered the A3 Pacific, adding revolutionary streamlining, a strengthened boiler, and an extended firebox – features that dramatically reduced coal and water consumption, particularly as later modifications included the iconic Kylchap double chimney. But the A4’s story is more than just engineering prowess. Legend has it that a careless thumbprint, inadvertently left on a clay model during wind tunnel testing, actually *resolved* the persistent issue of smoke obscuring the driver’s vision – a quirky detail that cemented the A4’s remarkable performance. Originally named after its visionary designer, this meticulously crafted Hornby Dublo model captures the A4's original grandeur. Featuring a robust diecast body, evocative of the original Hornby Dublo counterpart, and enchanting detailing, this model boasts a smooth-running 5-pole motor with a weighted flywheel, and is fully DCC-ready, accepting the latest HM7000-8TXS Bluetooth® & DCC Sound Decoder. **This isn't just a model; it's a piece of railway history.** **Specifications:** * **Scale:** 1:76 OO Gauge * **Length:** 29.1cm (11.5 inches) * **Height:** 5cm (1.97 inches) * **Width:** 3.5cm (1.38 inches) * **Weight:** 0.6 kg (1.32 lbs) * **Livery:** Iconic BR Blue * **Wheel Configuration:** 4-6-2 * **DCC Ready:** Yes - 8 Pin Socket **Don't miss your chance to own a piece of railway history. Order yours today and bring the legend of the Gresley A4 to life!**
