3 1/2 inch gauge "Sweet Violet" frames, castings, flanged boiler kit - stock code 7242

We don't often see "Sweet Violet", the 3 1/2 inch gauge version of the ubiquitous 5 inch gauge "Sweet Pea" - pity really, as it makes up into quite a good size tank engine in this gauge.

Parts include a flanged boiler kit by Blackgates Engineering, castings including wheels and cylinder sets, fabricated saddle in brass, smokebox tube, stainless steel grate and fabricated frames stretchers. Work to date is to a good standard.
