Consolidation 5in 2-8-0 Project

.

This a well known design being made to the Gresley "01 class" drawings, this model is unfortunately "despite being very well made" a project as it has a failed boiler after testing. 

This model was built by a prolific model builder local to us and ran regularly in its prime at Maidstone MES, it has been laid up for some time and was hopefully going to be reinstated as a working model, unfortunately despite being lovingly cared for the boiler had reached the end of its serviceable life and showed 3 to 4 weeping stays in the firebox at working pressure,

So the decision was made to try and find it a new home as a lovely ornament or hopefully find someone to reboiler her and bring her back to her former glory, chassis is nicely made with little running wear, tender is in great condition.
