Pictures opposite and words below are from March of last year.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    A 5 inch gauge Dubs 0-4-0ST with tender, modelled on a prototype that was one of the earliest locomotives supplied to China by the Glasgow-based company in the nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The engine has come to us from the builder, a prolific engineer now in his ninth decade and still going strong. Nowadays concentrating on smaller models, he decided it was time to move this two man lift locomotive on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The boiler had had a twice working pressure hydraulic test at 180psi for 90psi working - structurally sound, although with one pinhole weep on the foundation ring which appears to have gone undetected in many years judging by the verdigris surrounding it - we suspect it didn't leak under steam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Not steamed in several years, it runs well on air but will undoubtedly need some work to recommission. A worthwhile project, it's an unusual, attractive prototype.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54009997132117,"sku":"9061","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/9061-1.webp?v=1779899890","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/5-inch-gauge-dubs-0-4-0st-stock-code-9061","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
