One of the most recognisable locomotives of all time and certainly one of the most handsome, the A4 locomotive was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley and came into service in 1935. Thirty five were made and all were named. Perhaps the most famous of all, Mallard, reached a speed of 126mph in 1938 and still holds the record for the worlds fastest steam locomotive. A4 Pacific locomotives were in service until the 1960s and several, including Mallard, survived into preservation.
