A well built 3 inch scale Atkinson steam wagon built to the Ray Prime design, a thoroughly well-sorted engine that goes particularly well.

It came in recently - along with the LSWR T6 and Class 66 we sold earlier this year - from an experienced engineer, currently well on with one of the nicest 5 inch gauge 9Fs we've seen.

The engine runs quietly, valve gear is set up to give excellent events in forward gear, slightly inferior in reverse. It steams very freely - we all had a go on it this morning, it's a nice thing to drive.

There's some video of Connor having a run round in the sunshine this morning here.
