Gresley Class N2 No. 1744 LNER Steam Locomotive 11oz Mug
Celebrate classic British steam heritage with this 11oz ceramic mug featuring Gresley Class N2 No. 1744 in a vintage railway poster-style design.
The GNR/LNER Class N2 is an 0-6-2T side tank steam locomotive designed by Sir Nigel Gresley and introduced in 1920. No. 1744 is especially significant as the oldest surviving locomotive designed by Sir Nigel Gresley and one of the most distinctive preserved tank engines from the LNER story.
The 1744 numbering represents the locomotive’s early identity. It later carried several other numbers, including LNER No. 4744, LNER No. 9523, and British Railways No. 69523. So no, 1744 is not a random number slapped on the front for decoration. It is part of the locomotive’s genuine history, because apparently one number per engine was too merciful.
This mug features heritage-inspired artwork with a nostalgic railway poster feel, combining classic typography, station scenery, LNER-style green tones, and the compact charm of the N2 tank engine.
Perfect for steam train fans, LNER enthusiasts, Gresley admirers, heritage railway supporters, model railway collectors, or anyone who appreciates classic British railway history.
