LNWR George the Fifth class 2013 Prince George

what is it?

The LNWR George the Fifth class 2013 Prince George is a full size LNWR George the Fifth Class steam locomotive under construction by the LNWR George the Fifth Steam Locomotive Trust, a Registered Charity. The 'George' is a classic example of an LNWR express engine of which only one example (790 Hardwicke of the "Improved Precedent" Class) survived into preservation. Therefore, the Trust is progressing towards 'making good this gap', and the new George is currently being contractors with much of the work carried out by Keyte Smith Ltd of Kirkby in Ashfield The Trust relies upon donations and regular contributions in order to fund the project.
