A venerable 5 inch gauge Atlantic, built in 1947 and still in regular club use - it's the same age as the super
Southern L1 we sold a month or two back.
We last sold the engine in 2006 -
you can see the original listing in the archive here - since when it's been repainted and fitted with a second injector.
Paintwork remains presentable, motionwork is worn but working.
