5 inch gauge "Maid of Kent" with commercial CE-marked boiler

An early stage 5 inch gauge 4-4-0 to LBSC's popular "Maid of Kent" design, comprising:

  • erected locomotive and tender frames
  • machined cylinders
  • machined locomotive driving and bogie wheels and axles
  • machined valve and pump eccentric straps
  • unmachined castings including chimney, inner/outer domes, saddle, smokebox door and ring, tender wheels & horns, dummy springs
  • new, CE-marked boiler complete with manufacturer's documentation

Work to date is to a high standard, it would give a good start to the project.

For those more limited on time and needing something to run straightway, we also have an excellent "Maid of Kent", turned out in Midland 2P guise, from the same builder as the magnificent Britannia "Apollo" that we sold recently.
