{"product_id":"5-inch-gauge-southern-king-arthur-4-6-0-stock-code-7533","title":"5 inch gauge Southern \"King Arthur\" 4-6-0","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eI bought this engine from a man in Middlesex back in 2003, an  experienced engineer he had recently fitted a new boiler and was, at that point,  on with building a batch of four 5 inch gauge Duchesses. It sold quickly to a  friend in my own club, it's had occasional use in the years since on his  beautifully landscaped garden railway, in company with a very fine (one could  even say super) \"Super \"Simplex\". In recent years it's had little use -  as his club boiler inspector I've tested it each year, sometimes the first time  it's been steamed since the previous test.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eIt's recently come in  (along with the aforementioned \"Super \"Simplex\") in part exchange for a  new Feldbahn FC5 we're building him to run on the same 5 inch gauge layout (but  affording a more comfortable driving position for those of us who, with  advancing years, find ground level 5 inch gauge driving a bit acrobatic!)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eSilver  soldered copper boiler by Western Steam, 90psi working pressure, feed by twin  injectors with auxiliary hand pump in the tender. Cast iron cylinders with  piston valves actuated by Walschaerts gear, screw reverser in the cab. There is  an extension regulator to allow driving from behind the tender - particularly  useful (possibly essential) for ground level running.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eI've  driven this engine most years at its annual boiler test (usually followed by a  good lunch at the pub next door). I rate it - a well-built, powerful,  free-steaming locomotive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019077472597,"sku":"7533","price":8950.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/7533-1.webp?v=1779901621","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/5-inch-gauge-southern-king-arthur-4-6-0-stock-code-7533","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
