In 2010 a new locomotive based on the SR locomotive E188 was completed at Boston Lodge works for the Welsh Highland Railway. The number 190 has been used as this was the next vacant number in the Southern's numbering sequence and the locomotive named LYD following the L&B practice of using Devon river names.
The new locomotive has offered the opportunity to create new liveries these engines might have carried and this model depicts LYD as British Railways number 30190 in lined black livery with early lion over wheel emblem.

Believed to be the fourth of the 1864 'Small England' class Palmerston was the first to be rebuilt into it's current form with saddle tank and cab in 1888. The engine was thoroughly rebuilt in 1910, but was in poor condition by late 1930s and considered beyond restoration in the early preservation era. Purchased privately from the FR restoration started in 1974, progressing slowly until with a new boiler, cylinders and wheels, Palmerston was returned to service in 1993.
Palmerston is a well traveled locomotive having been hired for the construction of the NWNGR/WHR and assisting on the Vale of Rheidol line on several occasions. Since 1993 Palmerston has visited the Chemin de Fer des Chanteraines (Paris), Hollycombe (Sussex), Teifi Railway, progressively re-opening the WHR, National Railway Museum (York), Hollycombe Steam Collection (West Sussex), Llangollen Railway (on a temporary track), Kings Cross Station (London) and Bala Lake Railway. So there's good reason for Palmerston to be arriving on any narrow gauge layout!
Produced by Kato in Japan these models feature very fine detailing and engineering, the diecast chassis unit, boosted by using the saddle tank to accommodate as much weight as possible, surrounds a motor and flywheel combination designed for smooth running even at slow speeds.

Built in 1867 Welsh Pony was the first of the Festiniog Railways' enlarged 'large England' locomotives, more powerful than the earlier Prince and Princess. Out of service at the beginning of the preservation era parts were used to restore Prince in the 1950s. Cosmetically restored for display at Pothmadog in 1984, in 2013 serious restoration work began, returning Welsh Pony to service in 2020 finished in this distinctive Victorian era lined purple-brown livery.

Little Giant was the last of the Festiniog Railway George England built engines and the second of the 'large England' class along with Welsh Pony. Built new with the saddle and side tank and a front spectacle plate, a full cab was added when a new boiler was fitted in 1888. Little Giant did not survive into the preservation era, however several parts from this engine were used in the rebuilding of other England locomotives and the WW! Baldwin diesel locomotive Moelwyn.
