3 1/2 inch gauge "Mona" 0-4-2T

A venerable example of a 3 1/2 inch gauge 0-6-2T to LBSC's "Mona" design.

An older engine, the silver soldered copper boiler looks quite well made, although a multiplicity of leaks from dome, regulator and fittings precluded any meaningful hydraulic test.

On air there is leakage to exhaust, requiring attention to either valves, pistons or both.

The chassis turns over with one tight spot - it appears to be the lubricator rod the lug driving the water pump from the crosshead.

There is a small chip from the flange of one wheel; missing injector, grate and ashpan, the engine otherwise appears complete.
