Hornby TT3006M Class A3 Trigo 60084 TT:120 Model Locomotive

Model Overview

The Hornby TT:120 BR Class A3 4-6-2 60084 ‘Trigo’ is a detailed steam locomotive model for enthusiasts, collectors and TT gauge layouts. Finished in green, this Era 5 locomotive brings a classic British Railways subject to Hornby’s model railway range in 1:120 scale.

As a ready-to-run model railway locomotive, it offers a strong blend of character and display appeal for anyone building a TT:120 fleet. The exact locomotive identity, BR class and era make it a practical choice for modellers who want a named steam engine for their layout or collection.

Railway Background

60084 ‘Trigo’ represents the BR Class A3, a well-known steam locomotive type that served during the British Railways period. The Era 5 setting places the model in the later years of mainline steam, when diesel traction was increasingly taking over from steam on Britain’s railways.

This makes the locomotive especially suitable for layouts focused on post-nationalisation operations, as well as collectors interested in British steam era models with a clear prototype identity.
