During the late 1880’s and early 1890’s most had their wheelbases lengthened to 15 foot 6 inches and from 1904 onwards several were converted to auto train working which scattered them over the system. When Charles Collett became CME, during 1924 he widened the tanks and provided a new cab with extended bunker which became the Swindon rebuild and outwardly looked very similar to the later 48xx class he designed in 1932. The last of the class 1159 was withdrawn in August 1947 just missing out on nationalization. All members of the class were disposed of with none making it into preservation.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(218, 165, 32);\"\u003eGeneral Specification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDiecast chassis, running plate, wheels (with metal tyres) boiler and fire box (two fire box types) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFully compensated chassis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThree cab types: open, closed and the later Collett design \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetailed cab interiors· Removable cab roof (held in place with magnets on all enclosed cab versions)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTall and short chimney types \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChurchward sprung tapered shank buffers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh level of separately added detail \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRepresentation of internal motion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpertly applied liveries \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrinted number plates with etched plates in the accessory pack \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(218, 165, 32);\"\u003eTechnical Specification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA slide in PCB offers simple ‘tool-free’ installation of a NEXT-18 DCC decoder and a ’no-solder’ speaker connection.
