The locomotive has come as part of a collection of locomotives and stationary engines we bought recently.
It has been finished as a display model - whilst the chassis looks to be fully functional with three cylinders, Gresley-Holcroft conjugated gear, mechanical lubricator and turns over freely, the copper boiler is only tacked together and lacks any form of staying in the firebox.
Mounted on a handsome oak base with scale track, complete with perspex dust cover.
