A highly detailed model of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway H2 class 4-4-2 Atlantic type express passenger locomotive finished as 2421 South Foreland in Southern Railway green livery.
The H2 class was a continuation of the Marsh H1 class by Billinton, incorporating a superheated boiler. These were the most powerful of the LB&SCR express passenger engines used on the most heavily loaded and Pullman express trains like the
Brighton Limited, and
Southern Belle.In the 1920s the class was displaced by newer locomotives and took over many of the boat train services connecting with the Newhaven-Dieppe cross-channel service, being retained on these services into the 1950s. The last survivor was withdrawn in April 1958.
