We sold this one a couple of years ago to a long time customer, a highly capable model engineer who build and rebuilds in all scales and gauges - his latest locomotive a 7 1/4 inch gauge "Lilla", about to make its first run any day now.

He bought this LNER A3 "Flying Scotsman" - a factory assembled engine - for his granddaughter's 16th birthday, it's been kept boxed and pristine since. Now, with the young lady having just turned 18, she's decided a car would be of more use to her than an LNER Pacific. Sadly, we sold the Stanley some time ago, which would otherwise have been an ideal replacement, affording everyday transport without having to forsake steam completely...

The engine remains in excellent condition, complete with original box, custom-made wooden carrying case, tender dummy coal load, assembly and operating instructions.
