Locomotive History
Built at Doncaster Works in 1937, No. 60007 “Sir Nigel Gresley” is one of the legendary LNER A4 Pacifics designed by Sir Nigel Gresley himself — the Chief Mechanical Engineer who gave his name to this engine. The A4s are among Britain’s most iconic steam locomotives, famed for their sleek, aerodynamic design and record-breaking speeds, including the world steam speed record held by sister engine “Mallard.”
“Sir Nigel Gresley” spent its working life hauling prestigious express trains on the East Coast Main Line before being withdrawn in 1966. Saved for preservation, she remains mainline certified and continues to delight crowds on heritage railways and railtours.
Bring the timeless sight of this legendary locomotive to your collection — perfect for printing, gifting, or enjoying as a digital display.
