Stevens Model Dockyard 'Invicta'

[Killian keane]

Heres a very old model, which I aquired last year on evilbay, as you can see she is in deplorable condition, I sympathised with her and took on the long term task of her return to steam, to my knowledge she is the only surviving example of her class, and is 2 5/8" gauge, which was more common back in the victorian era, their equivalent of gauge 3

To date I have cleaned her back to bare brass and straightened the frame (a single brass casting!), when finished she should bear a strong resemblance to a Beattie well tank as built
