Hi Chaps,
Just built this little engine from a Tyrconnel Models kit available from Alphagraphix.  Went together very well. It has a Mashima motor but I don't think it will pull 15 Exley coaches up a 1 in 30 gradient!. The other picture shows an 8F and 9F also recently completed.

It was one of three built by Fairnbarn of Manchester. They lasted up till about 1906. I agree it does look like something Roland Emmett dreamt up!. I have also built another small engine called St Molaga but I'm waiting for new driving wheels. Will put  a picture on when its ready.
