Another one to add to the list of projects!
New purchase!- found this on ebay this evening....
It's described as a scratchbuilt LNER tank locomotive- it looks to be either an F1 or F2. Both classes built by the GCR in the 19th century to operate suburban trains around Manchester. My plans for it? The driving wheels look too small- I may look into replacing them with some 5' 7'' drivers. The chimney is a 1930s LNER standard flowerpot design, and will be replaced with a Robinson example. The loco will be given a clean up and a repaint and eventually put to work alongside my N5 on suburban trains.
