No. 34070 Manston – As Preserved

The light pacifics were designed by O.V.S. Bulleid to work over the restricted secondary routes of the Southern Railway. Two naming themes were used; ‘West Country’ and the ‘Battle of Britain’. The ‘Battle of Britain’ locomotives were named in tribute to the personalities, aircraft, RAF stations and squadrons involved in the 1940 air battle.

Manston was named to honour the RAF airfield near Ramsgate, Kent, which was used by fighter squadrons as a forward air base during the battle. First numbered 21C170 it was the last of the class to be built with an 8ft 6in wide cab. The locomotive is owned by Southern Locomotives Limited and is shown as running in preservation.
