3 1/2 inch gauge part-built Rob Roy 0-6-0T with air running chassis - stock code 11209

A well-advanced 3 1/2 inch gauge 0-6-0T to Martin Evans' popular "Rob Roy" design, comprising a chassis, silver soldered copper boiler, much of the platework including cab and tanks, superheaters with header and a quantity of drawings, parts, fittings and material.

The chassis runs on air - better forwards than in reverse - the boiler is neatly flanged and shows good solder penetration.

For those unfamiliar with the design - or simply needing some inspiration to finish this one - there's a particularly fine example which we sold at the end of last year in the archive here.
