Help please! Can anyone identify this loco? It was given to my Grandfather around 1930 by a guy who at some time worked for Basset Lowke. Many thanks in anticipation.

Looks like a very early model to me. Not an exact match but this loco from the Bassett Lowke / Bing 1905 catalogue has a similar style.

Might be worth contacting the Brighton Toy museum to see if they can find it in their archives
