Summary

The ‘Manor’ or 7800 Class locomotives were designed and built by GWR and 20 were produced in the late 1930s, just in time to aid the British war effort. The design incorporated GWR’s almost customary 4-6-0 wheel arrangement and the class was considered so good that BR built a further ten machines at Swindon in 1950. All the loco's in this pack apart from Erlestoke Manor belong to this second batch.

All the locomotives were, as you might expect, named after manor houses in the British countryside, mostly those on or near the Great Western Railway network.

The locomotives were designed to be a lighter version of the Grange Class, mainly to allow them to work on lines such as the Cambrian and other weight-restricted routes. This didn’t mean, however, that they only worked on secondary lines – they could occasionally be seen hauling prestige expresses when more powerful locomotives were not available.

This GWR Manor class is pack is British Railways and preservation themed and all the models have the later style of un-lipped chimney.

This GWR Manor Class expansion provides the following loco's in three liveries:

7812 Erlestoke Manor
7821 Ditcheat Manor
7823 Hook Norton Manor
7827 Lydham Manor
7828 Odney Manor
Ten custom scenarios, a set of Just Trains Mk.1 coaches, and tenders with both the early and the late style emblems complete the package.
