substantially complete chassis which looks ready to run on air (and certainly makes the right sorts of noises when pushed along)
silver soldered copper boiler by Kingswood Boilers, complete with manufacturer's test certificate and materials specification
ashpan with stainless steel grate
smokebox assembly, along with pair of part-completed smoke deflectors in brass
set of flue tube superheaters
box of part finished components, including tender water filters, lubricators, hand pump
tin of parts and fittings including lost was castings for steam valve handwheels, injectors, water gauge fittings etc
boiler cladding material
tender chassis with part-built tank along with formed brass to complete, water scoop
profiled platework for cab
