PJ1K's Mogul is not based on any one locomotive, but is intended to be broadly representative of locomotives of this type. These locomotives include the pre-WWI GNR Gresley K1 and the GWR 4300 Class, and the later LMS Hughes Crab and SR U class.This locomotive also stands in place of later 0-6-0 freight engines such as the LMS 4F and LNER J83.
