Bachmann 32-576 Ivatt Class 4 00 gauge locomotive.
This model locomotive of the LMS Class 4 is a really impressive representation of Henry Ivatt's distinctive 2-6-0 with the running board set high above the driving wheels. The pipework is superbly replicated as are other details on the model and the motion is perfectly carried out. Between 1947 and '52, 162 examples of the class were built. Only one of the class survived into preservation, No 43106, the final member of the class in service, which was based at Lostock Hall depot, near Preston. Henry G. Ivatt was born in Dublin in 1886, the son of Henry A. Ivatt, who later in that year was appointed Chief Mechanical Engineer of the Great Southern and Western Railway in Ireland. In 1904, his son started an apprenticeship at the Crewe Works of the London and North Western Railway (LNWR). During the 1914-18 War he served on the staff of the Director of Transport in France. Ivatt became Assistant Locomotive Superintendent of the North Staffordshire Railway (NSR) at Stoke-on-Trent in 1919. At Grouping the NSR was absorbed into the London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS). Having thus joined the LMS he 'worked his way up the ranks' to be appointed CME on 1 February 1946.
