Locomotive serial number

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Southern Railway : One Thread

Good day, I, recently acquired a model built by Kato for Con cor It is a J3A hudson with bullet nose. The model is painted green with silver trim. The tender has the words Southern Cresent Ltd. Can any one tell if this was an actual locomotive in use with the Southern railroad, and if so where can more information be obtained.

Southern Railway never had any Hudson type locomotives. They did have one Ps-4 that was streamlined for service on the Tennessean. That was the 1380.
