This special limited edition train pack of 2000 pieces is representative of the 'Flying Dutchman' at the turn of the 19th Century when the chosen class of locomotive scheduled to pull the train was one of William Deans superb 7ft 8in 4-2-2 Singles. Each specially presented limited edition train pack includes a numbered certificate. DCC Ready
