    I'm selling my 'O' gauge model of Scots Guardsman, I've had it several years now and has been run about half a dozen times a year on the Preston 'O' Gauge group layout.
    It is a Fine Scale Brass model, and was supplied in unpainted condition http://www.finescalebrass.co.uk/o-gauge-locomotives-lms-based/lms-rebuilt-royal-scot-last-one.htm
    It then went to Simon Greenwood for painting http://www.scalemodelrailways.co.uk/Painting.htm

    And finally to a member of the Preston O Gauge Group for minor finishing, coaling, lamps crew and other fine detailing.
    She performs well and regularly hauls a rake of 12 coaches, although sometimes seen double heading with a black 5 with 15 on.

    £1050.

    Is there no way you could offer it through the Gauge 0 Guild? Particularly, as they have Telford coming up on September 6th.

    Hope it's less trouble prone than its full size cousin. :)

    Have you done the rounds of the model railway forums Ralph? I wouldn't mind putting it up on NRM for you if you don't want to sign up to it.
