A well-built 7 1/4 inch gauge GWR 14XX 0-4-2T to Martin Evans' "Dart" design, with commercially-built CE-marked boiler by GB Boilers.

Motionwork and valve gear is to a high standard, fit and finish of machined parts is very good. Platework is neatly formed and riveted, paintwork was originally done to a good standard and remains bright, with minor wear in places consistent with use.

The engine has been serviced in our workshop, which included fitting a new set of drain cocks. The boiler has had hydraulic and steam tests with new certification issued.

It's a free-steaming locomotive that runs well, with crisp, square exhasust beats and a good reserve of power under the regulator - there's some video of it running here.
