Due to a number of requests we will be producing a very small batch of 0-4-0 Hunslet Jack locomotive in 7/8ths scale.
Locos will be built to represent the original ‘out the factory’ loco i.e. open rear cab sheet with sliding doors to aid with running and ease of access to controls.
The first batch has sold out and have now been completed. Due to the interest I will be looking to do another batch**.
**Due to my current workload there is a delay on making a start on the second batch. I will be in contact with everyone interested when I am ready to make a start on these.**
