Based on the Fowler B6 design, created and built by Edward George. This fabulous looking engine offers the enthusiast everything you could want from a large scale traction engine. A newcomer to our range of engines, to stand alongside the 6″ scale Burrell is the 8NHP 6″ scale Fowler Road Locomotive. This is a double crank compound with three speeds, sprung front and rear axles and fitted with belly tank. The drawings are scaled down from original works plans.
The first 6″ scale engine built with these drawings was seen at the Midland Model Engineering exhibition in 1994.
This engine is substantial in proportion.
