Thank you for the information. Very pleased with the engine build quality. It looks a treat running around pulling a few smaller industrial work type trucks. Tony

Re: Rail chairs
Thank you for your reply , I now believe my brass rail to be code 332 section not 330! Please see this link to explain. https://www.gardenrailways.co.uk/category-45.html . Slowly unravelling the identity and possibly a solution !
Be a shame not to use it to make my own 32mm gauge track!

Re: Identification help please
Thank you for all the advice on wagon size and scale. I am impressed by PS models kits, the prices seem most affordable to a new garden railway recruit!! The history of this engine DOT is quite fascinating so thank you for that. This forum had been so helpful.

Please forgive my lack of knowledge but what scale trucks should I be looking to buy for this engine. It runs on 32mm track, the trucks I currently have look way to big. Thanks. Tony

Re: Identification help please
Thank you , the model appears to be die cast or soldered white metal. It has a lovely frame and gearbox and the running gear is quiet and powerful. Will run for ages pulling two or three wagons . A lucky find perhaps!
