Bulletin: CR Class 812

Manufacturer: ESU, Item number: S0425, Version: V1-R1

Between 1899 and 1900, the Scottish Caledonian Railway (CR) purchased a total of 79 Class 812 steam locomotives, designed by locomotive engineer John F. McIntosh. The steam locomotive was originally built for freight transport, but was also used for passenger service. In 1923, all the locomotives built were transferred to the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) along with the CR. Most of the locomotives remained in active service until the late 1950s and were finally retired by 1963. The only surviving locomotive was CR 828, which is still actively used for museum tours today. F14: engine driver dialogue (different dialogues selectable with CV168 value 0-4)
