5 inch gauge "Sweet Pea" 0-4-2ST + tender

A well put together 5 inch gauge "Sweet Pea", built as the 0-4-2 variant with tender.
 
It's come to us from the builder who acquired the engine in part-built condition - an experience engineer, he currently has a "Maid of Kent" and "Simplex" nearing completion in his workshop, both being built to a fine standard.
 
The Sweet Pea has been run regularly, it's in good order and goes well.
