After a long absence of model making, a quick project was needed to get me motivated after a very long few months.

Sitting around was a half built gem Baldwin 4-6-0T which was used as a development model for my RT models replacement, fully working walchaerts valve gear.

The loco was never meant to be any particular loco until I visited snailbeach as been working nearby recentl so the Idea was set.

The model has been built with superglue mostly.

The valve gear rivets have been squashed carefully with a jewellers vice as I couldn't tap them with a hammer late at night!
