Withdrawals began in 1959 with 605 ‘Thane of Fife’, followed by ‘Lord President’ and ‘Cock O’ the North in 1960.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThompson Class A2-2 ‘Cock O the North’ is the latest detailed locomotive to be produced with Hornby’s innovative steam generator functionality where the locomotive creates realistic steam from the chimney of the model created by water vapour. Add this newly tooled design to your model railway today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis locomotive also comes fitted with sound. It has a series of sounds true to this class of locomotive, and the sounds and steam effects are synced to the model's movement, creating a realistic ‘chugging’. This is all controlled by the pre-installed HM7000 21-pin decoder, which can then be operated by DCC or Bluetooth via the free HM7000 app and powered by a strong 5-pole motor with all-wheel electrical pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor 2025, this model has gone through several tooling updates. These include the addition of a Gen 2 steam generator, which improves steam output and eliminates water clogging, the addition of an optical speed sensor for accurate wheel speed detection, a flickering firebox and a quick-release loco to tender connection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56185325683074,"sku":"R30395SS","price":328.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/0483\/9120\/files\/TradeWebSize-R30395SS_1.jpg?v=1768050691","url":"https:\/\/goinglocomodels.com\/products\/hornby-r30395ss-br-thompson-class-a2-2-no-60501-cock-o-the-north-br-early-with-steam-generator-txs-sound-fitted-oo-gauge","provider":"Going Loco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
