To celebrate 150 years of the Terrier, we are thrilled to be producing this limited edition train pack in association with The Terrier Trust and Kent & East Sussex Railway.

In 1872 the first of the Stroudley designed ‘Terriers’, No. 72 ‘Fenchurch’ entered service. This locomotive was the first of fifty that were built between the years of 1872 and 1880 and it is a testimony to the design there are still 10 examples in existence.

The Kent & East Sussex Railway has been synonymous with 'Terriers' since purchasing the 1872 built No. 70 'Poplar' in 1901. Having spent most of its life on the K&ESR, to celebrate its 150th anniversary the Railway commissioned 'Poplar's overhaul, with the locomotive now resplendent in its original livery of Stroudley 'improved engine green'

The second 'Terrier' No. 78 'Knowle' completes this celebratory brace of Stroudley's locomotives. Now preserved at the K&ESR 'Knowle' today carries the plain black Southern livery with 'sunshine' lettering.

This Limited Edition of 500 has been produced with the full cooperation of The Kent & East Sussex Railway and loco owners, The Terrier Trust.
