This one's special. Most people know that Robert Stephenson's 'Rocket' was the victor at the now-legendary Rainhill Trials in 1829. There have been many models of the engine – but few as large or breathtaking as this beautiful example from O.S. models of Japan.
Never used by its previous owner, the 5 inch Gauge engine and coach are in near mint condition and come complete with a circle of track. The passenger car is fitted with a saddle and footrest, and there is a wooden display stand for the engine. One of a small handful built, this is an incredibly rare item and represenets a unique opportunity for both collectors and live-steam enthusiasts.
Please note that due to this model's weight and value, it cannot be posted and is available for collection from our showroom only.
