Part-built 5 inch gauge LNER B1 - stock code 6498

One of the nicest 5 inch gauge B1s we've ever seen here (and I know there's another one in Ashley's office at the moment).

A well advanced project, work to date comprises a professionally-built air-running chassis, which has then been professionally painted and lined. Silver soldered copper boiler had its twice working pressure shell test in 2010 and has club paperwork for same, there's a box of unfitted parts for the locomotive and beginnings of a tender.

Complete with a set of Martin Evans drawings, along with a sheaf of other documentation used to produce a more prototypical model.
