5 inch narrow gauge Bagnall 0-4-0 - stock code 10282

We sold this one back in 2022, it's recently come back in pretty much exactly the same condition as the last time it was here. It's had hydraulic and steam tests with new certification issued - still runs just as well as it did before, the photographs opposite and video are from 2022.

A 5 inch narrow gauge Bagnall 0-4-0ST, built from a ModelWorks kit - the first running one of these we've ever had from a total production of 25 locomotives.

It steams freely and runs well with clear, well-defined exhaust beats. Paintwork is of the tar-brush school, although given the simplicity of the design, it would only be the work of a weekend to repaint.

On test all water feeds worked reliably - the injector is plumbed up to feed from a tank on a driving truck - the safety valves proved efficient with no hint of accumulation.
