A 5 inch gauge GWR Manor 4-6-0, No.7825 "Lechlade Manor", a thoroughly well-sorted engine in excellent condition.

Fitted with a commercially made boiler by Kingswood, the engine has been built to a high standard throughout. Fit and finish of the motionwork and valve gear is good, showing little evidence of wear; platework is neatly flanged and fitted.

Backhead is well laid out - semi-scale for ease of driving whilst giving an impression of the full-size locomotive.

Boiler had recent hydraulic and steam tests with new certification issued - there's some video of it on the rolling road here, it steams freely and runs quietly.

Paintwork and lining is to a good standard, showing minor signs of wear commensurate with use but overall in good, bright condition.

Complete with purpose-built, fitted transport crates for locomotive and tender.
