An advanced stage build of a 2 1/2 inch gauge, two cylinder Pacific - it looks like Bassett-Lowke's original "Flying Scotsman" design with the later (1980s) improved coal-fired boiler which was detailed in "Model Engineer". Pushes along freely, the coal-fired silver-soldered boiler appears soundly put together thus far. No tender or drawings, work to date is functional rather than exhibition winning, but definite potential.
