A 7 1/4 inch gauge "Jessie" 0-4-0ST, the sister engine to Ken Swan's excellent "Bridget" 0-4-2T design.

This one came to us recently from the family of a long time customer. Dismantled when the boiler failed some years ago, the overhaul stalled due to the owner's failing health - it is shown here loosely reassembled, with the new Western Steam boiler he bought for it at the time, complete with manufacturer's documentation and test certificate.

From what we can see this looks to be complete - a reassembly job with little further expenditure required.
