DJ Models Austerity J94 Pre-Production model test running with wagons and coach loads, at
Hatton’s Shop in Liverpool.

Hornby produced a representation of the Austerity J94 of WPR No. 16 in ‘00’ gauge, that was owned by the Wemyss Private Railway.

It is a very nice model and  attracted quite a bit of attention on its release and soon sold out.

Unfortunately Hornby used the original Dapol molds and therefore replicated a number of inaccuracies on this model. These will be highlighted at a later time.

Hornby R2740 WPR No. 16  0-6-0 Class J94 Austerity

The original publicity material for this engine, produced by Hornby, showed a black J94 numbered, WPR No. 18.

This was a pre-production model.

Luckily Hornby updated the production model to show,  WPR No. 16 in brown and minus the bunker steps.

Hornby’s original text:

‘Hornby R2740 00 Gauge PO WPR 0-6-0ST No 16 Steam Locomotive.’

Unfortunately Hornby sent out publicity material with image of the black version of the engine but the correct text. This did and has caused quite a bit of confusion for modellers.

Harburn Hobbies Edinburgh, produced a pair of these  Wemyss mineral wagons, in ‘00’ Gauge.

I have spoken to a number of people and have not been able to find any reference to the WPR having a gray wagon.

Gray wagons were produced normally by the manufacturer for photographic purposes.
