A large 5 inch gauge 0-4-0 chassis of freelance design, owing more than a little to LBSC's "Tich" although bigger than a normal 5 inch gauge version of that engine.
Work to date comprises a rolling chassis with much of the valve gear, cast iron cylinders machined and fitted complete with valves and a smokebox assembly.
