I bought this at the local flea market very very cheap, and I mean cheap. Believe it not it does run.

I know that it has seen much better days and I am not even sure that the chassis is the correct one for the body and there is no indication of the manufacturer.

It is the body that I am interested in, has anyone and idea what class of loco this is, or any other information please (with the exception of it's junk :D well what do expect at a flea market.)

It is certainly an interesting model engine. Not sure about the placement of the coal bunk forward of the cab. Would interesting getting coal out inside the cab amongst all the pipework etc. At least it would be preheated from the firebox!

It is similar to the LMS Kitson, but it isn't this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMS_Kitson_0-4-0ST but at least it's keeping me out if mischief while I am looking :D

Judging by this, the running number of 41177 seems to be incorrect.
