A 3 inch scale Burrell to the Plastow design which came in recently as a part exchange against a 4 inch scale engine. Paintwork is getting tired, however the commercially-built silver-soldered copper boiler is in good condition and the engine runs well. Complete with a driving/passenger trolley, the engine is on rubber tyres and is road-registered.

Silver soldered copper boiler, 100psi working pressure, feed by injector and mechanical pump with auxiliary hand pump on the footplate. Cast iron cylinder with slide valve actuated by Stephenson's reversing gear, pole reverser on footplate. Mechanical lubricator. Draincocks are rod-operated from the footplate. Two speed, winch behind nearside rear wheel.
