Rapido’s model depicts it in its post-1928 condition, which makes it suitable for re-creating the LNER’s high speed trials of the 1930s which culminated in\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMallard’s\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003erecord run in July 1938. As with the ‘OO’ model, the Dynamometer Car will be offered in post-1946 livery (perfect for re-creating the 1948 Locomotive Exchanges) and in post-1949 condition (when it was used on trials with Bulleid’s infamous ‘Leader’).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"has-woostify-text-color has-text-color has-woostify-heading-6-font-size\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/5292\/7467\/files\/Dynamoter_3.jpg?v=1771599477\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"has-woostify-text-color has-text-color has-woostify-heading-6-font-size\"\u003eRapido is also offering a spoof version in Railway Technical Centre livery.
