3 inch scale Atkinson steam wagon - stock code 7403

An early stage 3 inch scale Atkinson steam wagon to Ray Prime's design. Work to date has been done to a good standard and comprises:

  • Chassis with cast wheels, rubber tyres, back axle with sprocket and springing.

  • Shell of engine, machined crankcase, cylinders

  • Piston rings

  • Cylinder heads

  • Welded water tank

  • Castings for boiler top, ring and grate, coal shute

  • Cab floor and front formed

  • Steering screw and nut

  • Part machined valve gear bevel boxes

  • Brake stand with screw and nut

Had several of these over the years - they go very well, by far and away the most sophisticated of the steam wagons we see, very quiet, smooth engines with a surprising turn of speed. If you want to see what the finished article looks like - and how a good one goes - there are pictures and video in the archive of one we sold back in 2015.
