Picked this up at the Exeter Garden Railway show ages ago but only just found this picture. Andy resent it to me as i deleted my copys

I saw it on the bring and buy stand for £40 so I though can't be a bad price

It has a meths burner, uprated safety valve, water top up valve, nice fancy repaint with lining and nameplates

What a bargain, it looks great. Does it run well?

Personally I think I would give it some spectacle plate (hope I have my words right, my Daughter is 2 today and I have had friends and children in the house all day!).

Nice one Jim

Thanks Chris and Graham

Naaa i'm afraid it doesn't run at the moment

I bought it knowing that there was problem in the usual areas (steam lines and reversing block etc) but I will put a regulator on so it doesn't matter

I shall leave it as it is as I have been looking for a cut down engine for a while
