3 1/2 inch gauge "Britannia"

A well-advanced 3 1/2 inch gauge "Britannia", more closely resembling the prototype than the basic LBSC design - particularly in the motionwork and valve gear - and nicely detailed.

Work to date is to a good standard - we'd put the engine at about 90% complete. It requires some platework including running boards, boiler fittings and wet header.
