SOUTHERN REGION CLASS Q1 LOCO
GAUGE 1 KIT (45mm)
PART COMPLETE KIT/SCRATCH BUILT MODEL (Requires some finishing detail to body and cab interior and also requires a motor).
Was found in the back of my late fathers workshop he was a keen modeller in OO and O Gauge but I wasn't aware he had tried anything in larger scales. We did once upon a time have a Garden railway but certain this was in O Gauge.
I have tried to search to see if anyone still makes this model in this scale / gauge but cannot locate any manufacturer or history of this class being available. There are models in smaller scales but these are recent and I believe this model started out at least 10-15 years ago.
Kept safely in a polystyrene box can be safely posted out to whoever wins the forthcoming bid on ebay. Despite being unfinished and without a motor to power it I think it would suit someone who has modelling experience in this gauge and wants to finish off what was started.
