    What size are you looking for, 15 inch of 18 inch?, and which type are you looking for, rolling ring or sliding band?

    Best regards

    If you are still looking, the Spa Valley Railway have a couple of 18 inch rolling ring cylinders available - sensible offers requested.

    don't forget, the region of the vehical may be important, as some of the older fitted GWR stuff had Armstrong cylinders rather than the conventonal type too

    Rolling ring, and sliding band cylinders, should be interchangable, by rerouteing the flexi branch pipe. I would think it is unlikely there would be any GWR Dean type cylinders available. But these are only fitted to very old GWR vehicles [circa 1900]
