Railway Photo LMS Princess 6210 Lady Patricia Stanier Pacific Loco

The Princesses are related to the GWR King Class, the general outline essentially being a King with a larger firebox supported by additional trailing wheels. This origin is explained by the designer William Stanier coming from the GWR to the LMS.

When originally built, they were used to haul the famous Royal Scot train between London Euston and Glasgow Central.

Sorry anti, but my laptop is playing up again, preventing me from "copy and pasting" yet again <doh> <grr>

Dear oh bloody dear not again - time you took it outside on the lawn and get a tree branch and give it a good old John Cleese Fawlty Towers thrashing - I'll keep the home fires burning old son never fear.
I on the other hand have decided not to go to the doctors again as last week I am told some bloke who I have never met is going to shove something via catheter up the eye of the lance of lust and open up a channel so I don't spend a lot of the time emptying out - memo to all and sundry don't have a mens health check <cheers><doh>

6212 Duchess of Kent entered traffic on 21 October 1935, allocated to Camden shed and fitted with a riveted 9-ton LMS tender. Oddly, out of all the Princess Royals built at Crewe, 6212 was the only one to be fitted with a Derby style smokebox door.

LMS Princess Coronation class 6221 "Queen Elizabeth" hauls the Royal Train at Headstone lane on a journey from Glasgow to London.
This is the former LNWR Royal Train.
It retained the LNWR "plum and spilt milk" livery apparently because the King liked it. During the Second World War these Royal Train carriages were repainted into LMS red livery.
