7 1/4 inch gauge LSWR O2

A finely built 7 1/4 inch gauge O2 0-4-4T, a thoroughly well-sorted engine in good condition - we had this in steam last week and everybody had a go on it (even Laura, after a fair bit of persuasion!), there's a short clip of it running here.

Side tanks have been ballasted with lead - it's a substantial two man lift - the extra adhesive weight making it sure-footed on the track. Water is carried in the braked driving truck, which is fitted with a seat providing a comfortable driving position.

Paintwork is good, with some minor paint loss to the boiler cladding.

Complete with a full cab roof, which can be fitted in place of the cutaway version when not out on the track.
