Got myself a little project





Its a 5" Gauge 0-6-0 Tank Engine to the Simplex design of Nigel Evans. The engine is about 90% complete it was built by a Guy who due to age and Ill health couldn't complete it.

Work remaining is the:- plumbing, boiler feed pump, injector, lubricator, bunker water tank, breaks, cylinder drain coxs, and some cladding needs doing, plus a general tidy up and a new paint job, as the first thing my boss said when she saw it was :- "I don't like the colour"

Don't you just love em.

 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Its got a boiler certificate tested at 200 psi for running at 100 psi

As soon as I've completed the Simpson and Shipton this will be my next job.
