A complete set of drawings and castings for a 5 inch gauge "Enterprise" Gresley V1 2-6-2 tank locomotive to the Martin Evans design. There is also a brand new silver-soldered copper boiler, built by Cheddar Models with twice pressure hydraulic test certificate dated April 2002 and a set of laser-cut frames.

The V1 is an interesting engine, featuring 3 cylinders with the inside valves actuated by Gresley's conjugated gear. It builds into a large, powerful engine in 5 inch gauge.
