Feed by axle pump. The overall construction is lightweight, typically early  twentieth century with thin steel frames and cast brass bogie frames although  detail work is good with keyed eccentric sheaves, the axleboxes are retained by  an interesting arrangement of strap-type hornstay with springs beneath. Buffer  and drag beams are substantially made in wood.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThe engine has had some work done in recent times, not entirely  sympathetically. The green primer has been applied with a tar brush, the front  bogie axles have been skimmed, I imagine to clean them up although the standard  of turning has done little to increase the cosmetic appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThere are a couple of boxfuls of bits, including various  fittings and what appear to be two pairs of tender wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eLength 30 inches\u003cbr\u003e  Height 15 1\/2 inches\u003cbr\u003e  Width 10 inches across cylinders\u003cbr\u003e  Driving wheels 8 inch diameter\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54019993993557,"sku":"3307","price":500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/3307-1.webp?v=1779909218","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/6-12-inch-gauge-4-2-2-stock-code-3307","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
