    Can anyone identify this tender engine, part of the Keeley collection and now listed with Cheffin's auctioneers?

    I assume that this is the part completed 15" 4.4.0 by T S Thurston, go to UK locos website and put Berkshire in the County search box. The location details tie in with Cheffins auction catalogue for name of vendor and location of the auction.

    Regards

    Sold yesterday for £550 apparently. Does anyone know where this is off to now?
