What make is this old Pannier kit please

[hayfield]

A Jamieson Pannier arrived in the post today and differs to an old Pannier I wrongly thought was a Jamieson

 

 

I got this as a teenager (pre Hornby Pannier) and started to do it up, I must have used a 2" paint brush. The body is made from a brass coloured metal (same as the JayDee coaches), the wheel splashers are pressed out from the tank sides

 

 

I think from previous threads the motor is a Pitman, Romford Wheels. It was a 3 rail and I started to convert it to 2 rail. The Jamieson chassis is there for comparison.

 

Thanks

Can anyone shed any light on the maker R M Evans please

Looks like RM evans, see earlier posts under that heading.

 

In that case, your model may be the one listed in the MREMAG loco database under 57xx-97xx, according to which R.M Evans introduced a 57xx kit in 1947:

Sadly I know nothing about R.M. Evans, other than the old Pimlico Rd address evident on the box.
