Introduced in 1938, the Manors were go-anywhere replacement for the 43xx Mogul and other older 4-4-0s and even re-used some components from withdrawn locomotives. With a new boiler design (Standard No.14) they were over 5 tons lighter than a Grange and nearly 13 tons lighter than a Hall with accompanying tender and their maximum 17t 5cwt axleload brought them nicely under the GWR’s ‘blue’ classification allowing them to be used on important weight restricted routes across the network.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"gwr-manor-crew-driver-fireman-gwr","title":"GWR 'Manor' Crew - Driver\/Fireman - GWR ","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUtilising the latest in full-colour 3D scanning and printing technology, these figures are designed and produced in the UK specifically for the Accurascale Manor. Printed in full colour.

This no doubt delighted the hundreds of thousands of holidaymakers who enjoyed haulage behind the locomotive for four decades until it was repainted into its as-delivered lined black in 2011.

Happily, despite having spent the best part of a decade at Dai Woodham’s Barry scrapyard, it was preserved by the Foxcote Manor Society in January 1975 and after a decade at Oswestry it found its way to the Llangollen Railway where the rest of its restoration took place.

The penultimate delivery of the post-nationalisation batch was new to Neath at the end of December 1950 but had moved to Shrewsbury before the end of 1952. It lost its attractive lined black delivery scheme for plain black the following December after a Heavy Intermediate overhaul at Stafford Road, Wolverhampton, but this was mitigated when it became the first Manor to received lined green – not too far from the classic GWR livery of the early 20th century – at Swindon in July 1956. Later allocated to Croes Newydd and Aberystwyth, in January 1965 it returned to Shrewsbury for its final ten months of service, being withdrawn that October.
