There were few more distinctive locomotives ever built in Britain than the A4 Pacifics and interest in the class is seemingly inexhaustible. Designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, the 35 members of the A4 class of Pacific locomotive built for the London & North Eastern Railway are amongst the most iconic locomotives ever constructed in Britain. With their streamlined lines, the new locomotives epitomised the styling of the 1930s when they were introduced to the East Coast main line and brought a revolution in speed to services between London and the West Riding, the North-East and Scotland. One of the class No 4468 Mallard has an additional claim to fame: in July 1938, Mallard broke the speed record for a steam locomotive, held by a German design set two years earlier, achieving 126mph on Stoker Bank and is a record that still stands today.
