5 inch gauge LNER Atlantic - stock code 7912

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.
