This model is the Matchbox Yesteryear Y13-1-A-1 American General Class Locomotive (1862) in Green and Maroon Santa Fe livery. It was packed originally in the type B or C line drawing style box.
The model has decals to the sides of the cab which read "Santa Fe". The rest of the engine body is Dark Green while the chassis, and smoke stack are maroon. The base and wheels are black. There is no interior detail or glazing.
Body Colour: Dark Green body, Maroon chassis and smoke stack
Paint Trim: Gold with Silver lamp lens
Radiator/Grille: Brass Boiler door
Wheel Hubs: Black solid front and black 12 spoke rear
Tyres: None
Box Type: no box, should be line drawing type B or C
Other Comments/Identifying Features: The model has 3 lines of text on its base at the front that read "Models, Of, Yesteryear", 3 lines in the middle that read "American, Loco, 4-4-0", and 3 lines of text toward the rear that read "Made In, England, By Lesney". The model number "No. 13" is cast on the rear of the base at right angles to the rear driving wheels and axle. The base and chassis casting are held together with one maroon machined rivet. I believe there are other hidden rivets holding the green body to the maroon chassis that cannot be seen. The model has gold trim on the chimney rim, two condenser tops and boiler walkway edges, none on the bell and silver on the front light lens. The boiler door is brass. The decals (waterslide transfers) are all Yellow text inside a red outline and read "Santa Fe".
Issued 1959, with a stated scale of 1:112.
