32/45mm ELR Engineering Horatio ''Blossom'' 0-6-0ST - stock code 12301

A 32/45mm gauge "Horatio" 0-6-0ST, commercially built by ELR Engineering using a Roundhouse chassis with their own coal-fired boiler.

In rather grubby condition and requiring some retouching of the paintwork, the boiler proved sound on hydraulic test, the engine runs well in either direction on air.

An interesting model - we rarely see coal-firing in this scale.

Includes free UK shipping.
