BB Class
The SR West Country and Battle of Britain classes, collectively known as Light Pacifics or informally as Spam Cans, are air-smoothed 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotives designed for the Southern Railway by its Chief Mechanical Engineer Oliver Bulleid. These engines incorporated new engeneering design decisions to reduce the weight and improve speed factor. The tender was designed to be lighter, thus with reduced capacity. It could carry 4,500 imp gal (20,460 L; 5,400 US gal) water and 5.00 long tons (5.1 t) of coal on a six-wheel underframe.
I did not create the original model, all credit goes to the original author. I adapted and simplified if for the game, including texturing and adding a tender. Mod was created for personal use and I decided to share to have a steam western loco for early game starts from 45’s.
The model is not accurate historic representation but resembles to 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive.
