A venerable example of a "Hielan Lassie", LBSC's take on an LNER-style Pacific for 3 1/2 inch gauge.

An older engine, it rolls freely and runs well in either direction on air, with slight leakage past pistons.

The combustion chamber boiler has had a twice working pressure hydraulic test - although appearing structurally sound, there is one firebox stay with a persistent weep that requires attention, with a handful of others that would take up under steam.
