7 1/4 inch gauge GWR King 4-6-0 6024 'King Edward I'
The
King Class was the Great Western Railway's most powerful express
locomotive. The drawings for this 1/8th scale loco were developed
from Swindon Works drawings by Trevor Shortland, with castings by
Reeves.
Something of a 'barn find', this loco was subject to a complete strip down and rebuild at Denver Light Railway before being fit to run. A couple of articles were published by the owner during this time in club magazines, the longer version here and the shorter version here.
