3 1/2 inch gauge "Rob Roy" 0-6-0T - stock code 10716

A finely made example of a Caledonian Railway 0-6-0T to Martin Evans' "Rob Roy" design.

Unsteamed from new, the locomotive is turned out beautifully, paintwork and lining both to exceptional standard. Fit and finish of motionwork and valve gear is excellent, the chassis runs well on air in both directions.

Silver soldered copper boiler showed no sign of leaks or deflection on hydraulic test, though in deference to the quality of the paintwork, we haven't exposed the boiler for a hydraulic certificate - we would warranty it as sound.
