3 1/2 inch gauge Tich 0-4-0T

A 3 1/2 inch gauge "Tich" in large-boiler, Walschaert's gear form.

An older engine, it runs well on air in either direction, notching up nearly to mid gear.

The boiler appears well made, although the regulator boss leaks copiously, it requires removing and a new gasket fitting prior to test.

Complete with drawings, a copy of the LBSC construction manual and purpose built carrying box.
