This highly detailed, diminutive locomotive model is a must-have model for steam collectors, due to its historical importance and incredible model engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis historically important locomotive was built in 1829 to participate in the Rainhill Trials, a competition set-up by the promoters of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway to find suitable motive power for its opening the following year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to the order of his father George (who was the L\u0026amp;MR’s principal engineer at the time), ‘Rocket’ was designed by Robert Stephenson and built at his Forth Street Works in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design was the most advanced in its day and ‘Rocket’ won the Trials. The locomotive then became one of four that took part in the L\u0026amp;MR’s opening parade in September 1830.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hornby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58236036841853,"sku":"R30510","price":166.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0419\/5696\/6563\/files\/R30510C.jpg?v=1780232735","url":"https:\/\/www.chestermodelcentre.com\/products\/hornby-r30510-stephenson-s-rocket","provider":"Chester Model Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
