Set GWS2 Great Western Railway 54xx class loco and B set, circa 1935.
This is a 2007 design with updates.
Millimodels
sets are individually numbered and produced in limited editions of 500 for each
set.
Millimodels, continuing in the tradition of miniature card and paper modelling in the 21st Century.
This is a card kit to cut out and assemble which builds to a complete passenger train measuring approximately 10 inches long with included track base. Comprising 54xx class Collet 0-6-0PT locomotive, a pair of B set coaches and track base.
No examples of the 54xx class have been preserved but some of the 64xx class, with 4 foot 7 ½ inch wheels as opposed to 5 foot 2 inch wheels, have been.
This set is to 1/200 scale and is compatible with Micromodels, which varied
in scale around this size.
These model kits are intended for experienced modellers and are detailed
and small in size. Good eyesight or magnification is required and steady hands!
Millimodels are intended to fill some of the gaps in the Micromodels railways
range, with railways that were not represented by them and also some of the
smaller subjects. In addition, it has been decided to make some sets, at least,
as whole trains rather than sets of locomotives. It is hoped
that more sets may be added to the range on a regular basis and
produced in small numbers.
There are at present 9 Millimodels sets:
LYS1 Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Aspinall 0-6-0 and goods train
LYS2 Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Aspinall 2-4-2T and passenger

To comply with eBay rules, I am unable to give a link to my web site
which gives further details about the construction of these models. I only sell my Millimodel sets through eBay.
