2 1/2 inch gauge part-built A3 pacific - stock code 1763

Old A3 Pacific with part set of drawings which look to be pre-war, possibly 1930s. Water tube boiler for spirit firing, two piston valve cylinders with Walshaerts gear, dismantled 8 wheel tender. Coupling rods and bits missing from nearside motion work but the chassis looks as if it would take little to get it going. No front bogie, cab or running boards.

Locomotive 24 inches
Tender 14 inches
