Description
Originally going to be a small 4-4-2 Atlantic locomotive (named after 'Mighty Atom' ) but, after seeing a 2-8-2 Mikado, 4-8-2 Mountain class and a 4-8-4 Northern in my todays daily deviations as well as ebay while looking for for 7 and 1/4 gauge rolling stock. I felt "why not make one myself. A giant of the railway".And this is the end result.
I do not have a back story yet but, I am sure something will come to mind.
Mighty Antony (c)

Mighty "Oh yes, thank you Kyle and Silver Lady. I would like to work on East Coast but, I hear that the Midlands Railway has more hills so, that is where my size comes in. I am quite pleased and tingling or should that be bubbling with anticipation of challenging and conquering these mountains, as I race between London Euston and Glasgow Central." he smiled.
[I used pieces from the four locomotives art piece to make him. The frame from 'Jaguar' and extended it. Then copied the wheels and redraw the connecting rods. The pistons from conrods from 'Workhaven' and remodeled where the connecting rod meets the piston rod shaft. The trailing wheels from 'Wallaby and extended them with extra set of wheels. Redrew the firebox from a fictional LNER/LMS hybrid (looks like a black five firebox on an LNER A3 chassis), then modified Jaguar's tender to give an extra axle for the stability of higher speeds. Oh and I kept Jaguar's leading wheels as they are bigger/larger than Workhaven's leading wheels. And now you know

Silver Lady: I used to work on the East Coast Mighty. I used to pull the Silver Jubilee *remembers back to the 30s* me, my brothers and sisters who have sadly been scraped leaving me the only silver A4 surviveing, used to pull that train everyday until WW2 started and it all faded away after that. Even so the Midlands do need an engine to get over those mountains.

Mighty Antony: "I heard that most of your silver brothers and sister have been scrapped but, I would like to mention that Silver Fox is not scrapped but, on a heritage line (me owning the model), and yes I shall be working over the mountains *smiled* I will follow in your wheel trails as well as the LMS Coronations and the BR's Standard 8 and 9 classes".

Silver Lady: My sister Silver Fox is alive Mighty Antony and I accept you following in my wheel trails.

Mighty Antony "Oh yes, I heard from Sarah Shore, that Ben King, Kuro's father, bought Silver Fox from the scrapyard as Doncaster Council had rejected saving her. So Silver Fox was repaired and kept on his land and touring other railways or on his land in a railway shed or on that engine creating and manufacturing (that art piece where those seven streamliners were located, in that area). I thank you, and maybe one day you will be given directions to see Silver Fox again. I do not have permission to allow that". *lets off a soft whesh of apology* I would happily allow you to see your sister". *happy to chat with the pair of them*
