Class G5 Locomotive Company Ltd. 0-4-4T No. 1759

Posted by: Steve Frost on Jun 4, 2022 @ 05:06:46
Superficially, the loco doesn't look much different from the earlier photos in the album, but there is more progress than the photos reveal. Following issues with one of the driving wheels, a replacement has now been produced and awaits fitting to the crank axle. This will be done at South Devon Railway Engineering. All the sandboxes have been completed and there are many components awaiting fitting. On the frames, the spring hangers are fitted and the motion plate casting is in place.

The connecting rods will be the next major components to be made once a suitable forge can be found to make the blanks.
