Simplex 0-6-0 Tank Locomotive
This is a 5″ gauge live steam model of a Simplex 0-6-0 tank locomotive, named “Roy”. The locomotive features a robust construction, with a detailed cab interior and visible mechanical components. The model is finished in a dark colour scheme with red detailing and the name “Roy” painted on the side of the tank. It is accompanied by a folder containing paperwork, including diagrams and instructions.
Condition and Collector Appeal
The locomotive shows signs of use and age, with some weathering and wear to the paintwork and metal components. The model appears to be a freelance design based on the instructions by Martin Evans. This would be of interest to collectors of model railways, steam enthusiasts, and those interested in engineering and craftsmanship. The included paperwork adds to its appeal, offering insight into its construction and operation.
