The ‘Claughton’ built by Nigel Thompson and has four cylinders with correct valve gear etc. Completed over fifteen years ago, it has required no repair nor serious maintenance since. It has power to spare, making it an easy engine to drive and has pulled over twenty people.

George the Fifth Class ‘Ptarmigan’ is a particularly nice model with lovely cab fittings by Ted Bull.

The Teutonic ‘Jeanie Deans’ was built by David Roberts and is fascinating to watch and to listen to, as the exhaust is extremely soft. Starting requires some care due to the uncoupled driving wheels, but once underway it pulls well to a very high speed and always seems to stay in sync. This engine starred at the 2000 IMLEC trials at Northampton.

The 18in Goods (‘Cauliflower’) was built by Brian Cantwell.

The ‘chassis’ of a Precursor (which will be ETNA) was built by Peter Barlow and is based on Don Young’s design, which is very close to the original, down to the double radial truck seen in the picture, which has both a radial action and a fixed pivot. The valve gear is Joy.
