{"product_id":"3-12-inch-gauge-conway-stock-code-2671","title":"3 1\/2 inch gauge \"Conway\"","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eA older engine, built in the 1980s to Martin Evans'  \"Conway\" design for a quarry Hunslet. Particularly nicely made,  including a steam boiler feed pump, the engine was running up until late last  year when a water leak at the firehole ring appeared. The owner stripped the  boiler from the frames to repair it when, as often happens, other projects got  in the way. I've had a look at the boiler, the front tubeplate and firebox look  sound and I believe there is a good chance that Comsol will fix the leak at the  backhead - there is already an older repair. All parts removed are included, the  engine could be reassembled in an afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eSilver-soldered copper boiler with radiant superheater, fed by  injector, steam pump with displacement lubricator and auxiliary hand pump in the  tender. Outside cylinders, inside valves actuated by Stephenson's valve gear  with pole reverser in cab. Drain cocks operated from cab. Mechanical lubricator.  There is much nice detailing on the model, including working leaf springs, dummy  whistle, lamp and boiler cladding neatly cleaded in brass around the backhead,  as per prototype.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eAn attractive design, being modelled on a narrow-gauge prototype  the engine is similar in size to a small 5 inch gauge 0-4-0, with similar  performance. The engine featured on the front cover of \"Model  Engineer\" in 1982.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eLength 27 inches\u003cbr\u003e  Weight approx 70 pounds\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019809771861,"sku":"2671","price":1150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/2671-1.webp?v=1779907537","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/3-12-inch-gauge-conway-stock-code-2671","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
