5 inch gauge part-built BR Standard Class 2 - stock code 11227

A finely built BR Standard Class 2 Mogul to Don Young's design, a well-advanced project complete with commercially built boiler.

Work to date comprises:

  • rolling chassis with pony truck, coupling rods and return cranks
  • CE-marked copper boiler with manufacturer's documentation
  • machined gunmetal piston valve cylinder assemblies
  • valve gear components including expansion links, eccentric and radius rods
  • motion brackets
  • screw reverser stand
  • tender
  • drawings

An excellent start with the potential to produce a fine example of this attractive design - if you need some inspiration, there are some pictures and video of a particularly well-built engine we sold some years ago in the archive here.

Parts and castings are available from Reeves, as ever our friends at Model Engineers Laser offer a comprehensive set of profiled parts to facilitate the build, including cab and running boards.
