Better photo of my model:
Tender body wrapper was a Stan Garlick cast off (still don’t know what was wrong with it!) I cut the mainframes, but Trevor Nunn spirited the bits away to do a “couple of jobs” in return for the hundreds of hours I spent helping with Wicken and East Lynn. It cam back largely complete, bar boiler bands, detail on the backhead, ash pan operating rod, screw-jack and brakes on the tender, and paint. I wasn’t complaining when I said, “But I thought you were just going to help out with the open splashers.” He told me that the engine was quite different to how GER engines were put together, and he got carried away...
Being S Scale, it is handbuilt, of course.
EWJR number 8, by the way. Unfortunately we only found out about the earlier Ramsbottom boiler dimensions after it was finished. I was gratified (and amazed) by the number of people who recognised it at the Leamington show circa 2003.
I must, at some point, get around to building one of the outside framed 0-6-0s to go with it - already have a 2-4-0T and some goods stock.
