Specifications
|
Caradoc was a freelance design model with inspirations from Hunslet. The loco is
internally gas fired with a centre flue boiler. The
cab roof slides back to give access to the gas, water, and lubricator fillers. The
boiler is fitted with a water level check valve and the displacement lubricator has an
under floor drain valve.
The model is built from stainless steel and brass, and with the correct maintenance will
give a lifetime of pleasure.
The loco is dual gauge for 32mm and 45mm
gauges and has insulated wheels as standard.
