A large 5 inch narrow gauge chassis, not sure what (if any) published design it has been built to - there is a single GA for a Lynton & Barnstaple Manning-Wardle in the box which is something similar but not the same.

Work to date is a rolling chassis - work in this is quite decent - with wheels running in bronze axleboxes, all horns, springs and hornstays fitted, eccentric sheaves, pony trucks and buffers.

There is a box of Walschaert's valve gear bits included, built to a modest standard.

Paint appears to be by the local primary school, black with red and silver detailing - a tin of Nitromors would make the project look a good deal more appealing.
