A 5 inch gauge 0-6-0 tender locomotive, based on Martin Evans' popular "Simplex" design with an interesting "Evercreech Junction via Eastern Europe" interpretation!

Recently arrived in part exchange for a B1, it runs well, notching up in either direction.

The engine requires some work, including a replacement pressure gauge and attention to leaks at the wet header joint and blower union.

Fitted with a commercially built, CE-marked copper boiler - on hydraulic test it was dry and showed no signs of distortion, we would warranty as sound.
