A 2 inch scale Burrell Gold Medal tractor to the MJ Engineering design - started in 2003, it remains unsteamed since completion in 2009.

Commercially-build silver soldered copper boiler, 120psi working pressure. Feed by injector and mechanical pump. Cast iron cylinder with slide valve actuated by Stephenson's gear, pole reverser, mechanical lubricator and Pickering type governor mounted on block. Twin Ramsbottom type safety valves.

Three shaft, two speed transmission, winch behind nearside rear wheel with fairleads on tender.

A decently made effort, paintwork was not the builder's forte - it would repay a winter spent stripping and repainting.
