Hornby TT:120 BR Terrier 32655 TT3040M
Hornby’s newly tooled TT:120 BR ‘Terrier’ 0-6-0T 32655 captures the charm and history of this enduring class. Finished in the British Railways lined black livery with late crest, this model reflects the locomotive’s later years in service, offering a striking addition to any Era 4 layout. This highly detailed locomotive features a precision-engineered coreless motor, delivering smooth and consistent performance. The diecast body enhances both durability and realism, while NEM tension lock couplings ensure effortless integration with rolling stock. Equipped with a 6-pin DCC Ready socket, the model offers seamless digital conversion for enhanced control and operation. With its intricate lining, finely rendered details, and historically accurate livery, the BR ‘Terrier’ 0-6-0T 32655 captures the essence of a classic locomotive in its later years. Pair with our exciting range of new TT:120 4-wheel coaches for historic authenticity.
Starting life in December 1875 as the L&BCR’s No. 55 ‘Stepney’, the locomotive was rebuilt as an ‘A1X’ in 1912 and fitted out for working its new air-controlled motor train system and, now renumbered 655, was based at West Croydon. In 1920, it was loaned to the Woolmer Military Railway and shortly after the Grouping in 1923, the locomotive was withdrawn and put into store. Following overhaul at Brighton, it re-emerged in 1927 as B655 and fitted with push-pull gear, working the Lee-on-Solent branch. As No. 2655 it was hired to the independent Kent & East Sussex Railway, following which it returned to Brighton to emerge in BR lined black as 32655 – the condition in which the Hornby model is presented – and was eventually retired after a stint on the Hayling Island line in 1959. It famously became the Bluebell Railway’s first locomotive in 1960 and was returned to its original livery as No. 55 ‘Stepney’.
