Showroom
Our Skipton showroom is open weekdays 9am until 5pm and by appointment on weekends.
The GWR's 5101 Class – often known as 'Large Prairies' – were introduced from 1929 and used on mixed traffic duties across the region. This model has been constructed to a good standard from a brass kit and would benefit from work to rectify imperfections in the paintwork and mechanism.
*Please note that items sold via The Workshop are not covered by our usual warranty and are intended as project pieces requiring maintenance and/or rectification.
