The prototypically correct gab gear can only be reversed in certain positions, it's a design easily damaged if the reverser is \"crunched through\" in the wrong place - it's not something we'd recommend for a beginner's club engine!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    Paintwork is tired, although quality of the rest of the build would amply repay a strip and repaint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The builder took many pictures of the original engine for reference, adding detailing like the backhead rivetwork and beautfully made brass \"haystack\" firebox cladding to the model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    We like the builder's plates - alongside the \"Todd Kitson \u0026amp; Laird\" plate on the frames is \"Ruston Diesels, Vulcan Works\", the company who restored the original engine to steam for the \"Rocket 150\" celebrations in 1980.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54009569214805,"sku":"10352","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/10352-1.webp?v=1779898291","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/5-inch-gauge-liverpool-manchester-lion-stock-code-10352","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
