5 inch gauge Standard Class 7 "Britannia" - stock code 11242

A well-advanced 5 inch gauge "Britannia", supplied in kit form by Winson Model Technology. It's come to us from the son of the late builder, a proflic model engineer - and thoroughly nice chap too, we built him a "Feldbahn" some years ago which he ran at his club in Herefordshire.

We'd rate this at about 80% assembled, there's a large quantity of loose parts - including some duplicates - along with profiled brass cab components and set of name and number plates to replace the original parts.
