ABOUT 'THE TITFIELD THUNDERBOLT'

An altogether British David vs Goliath tale - the film tells the heartwarming story of locals banding together to save their branch line after the government threatens to close it. In this case the steam locomotive becomes the main character, a symbol of defiance against the odds! The story was inspired by the group of enthusiasts, led by Tom Rolt, who took over the 2ft 3in gauge Talyllyn Railway in 1951 and thus kick-started the railway preservation movement.

L&MR 'LION' 0-4-2 LOCOS ALSO AVAILABLE

The locomotive featured in the film was the Liverpool & Manchester Railways' "Lion" 0-4-2 steam locomotive. When their new Titfield models were tooled up, Rapido also created new models of 'Lion' in conventional 1930s and 1980s preservation liveries too - they are also in stock now!
