7 1/4 inch gauge Vulcan battery-electric shunter - stock code 12695

A 7 1/4 inch gauge battery electric 0-4-0 shunter, built from a commercially produced kit by Graham Prestwich Engineering.

It's come to us from the builder alongside his Class 20 and sit-aside petrol shunter, both modified versions of commercial models - evidently the man's speciality.

Fitted with a 24V 100A Parkside controller, there's a single motor of unknown manufacture chain-driven to both axles, the engine runs in both directions. The locomotive is fitted with a single-tone horn and forward running light.

Complete with a pair of 12V Monbat leisure batteries.
