Gauge 1 Aster GWR 4-6-0 "King George V"

A GWR 4-6-0 "King George V"  by Aster Hobbies.

Built from a kit and unsteamed from new, the chassis is currently seized solid. We've attempted some gentle persuasion in the workshop without success - an infamously fiddly locomotive to work on in any scale, it will require dismantling to investigate further.
