Designed by Nigel Gresley 'Bittern' went into service in 1937 and was one of 35 A4 Class locomotives produced for the London and North Eastern Railway. The regular service top speed would be 90 mph but the record for a steam engine is held by a sister loco 'Mallard' at 126 mph. Only six remain in working condition. MM, 35mm Summicron.
