A well made 3 1/2 inch gauge Mogul, of freelance design although proudly emblazoned with LNER on the tender and painted in an appropriate colour for the railway - not sure how many Belpaire fireboxes came out of Doncaster though.
An older engine, it's in good condition and runs well - there's some video of it here. Boiler feed is by axle and hand pump; there is an injector fitted, although fussy to start at higher pressures.gauge | 3 1/2 inch |
