A 3 1/2 inch gauge "Rob Roy" which we sold early last year (there are pictures in the archive here), it's recently come back in as part exchange against a 5 inch gauge engine.

Ran quite well last time we had it in, it was hydraulic and steam tested at that time.

The last twelve months haven't been too kind to the engine, it now required a variety of work including refixing a loose crankpin and freeing off a seized regulator.
