1 inch scale "Minnie" - stock code 4122

A well-made 1 inch scale agricultural engine to Len Mason's "Minnie" design – it came from the builder of the similarly well-constructed "Tich" I've got in at the moment (he also put together the Polly II currently listed, he was a busy man!).

Silver soldered copper boiler, 50psi working pressure, feed by mechanical pump with bypass. Twin Ramsbottom safety valves. Gunmetal cylinder with slide valve actuated by Stephenson's gear, pole reverser on footplate. Mechanical lubricator. Two speed transmission, winch behind nearside rear wheel with tender-mounted fairleads.

Length 16 inches

scale 1 1/2 inch & smaller
