    Best of the 6080/6AS7/5998/7236 etc. family. These present a very good dynamic response with a hint of warmth and excellent deep tonal character. O-getter (1960's) and earlier D-getter (1950's) types are available. Some tubes in stock are labeled for Chatham, Dumont and United Electron.

    6000 King George V
    The locomotive was the first of the “King” Class, and was built in June 1927. It was shipped to the United States in August 1927 to feature in the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad’s centenary celebrations.
    During the celebrations it was presented with a bell and a plaque, and these are still carried to this day.
    This led to it being affectionately known as “The Bell”.
    After returning from the US it was allocated to Old Oak Common, but was moved to Bristol in 1950.
    It was subsequently allocated to Old Oak Common again in 1959, to be withdrawn by the Western Region of British Railways in December 1962 after covering 1,910,424 miles.

    Ex-GWR 4-6-0 King class No 6009 King Charles II is seen approaching Platform 7 at the head of an up express service from Birkenhead to Paddington on 12th August 1961.
    Built at Swindon in March 1928 No 6009 was first allocated to Old Oak Common shed from where it was ultimately to be withdrawn.
    In 1954 it was fitted with the 'Alfloc' water treatment system and then in May 1956 No 6009 was fitted with a double chimney which it retained until it was withdrawn in September 1962 to be scrapped by J Cashmore of Newport.
