GWR/BR Hawksworth 4000 Gallon Tender in Plain Brass with Black Chassis — Steamline Ltd.

MSL15. GWR/BR Hawksworth 4000 Gallon Tender in Plain Brass with Black Chassis. This is a brass model by Sancheng for Finescale Brass, is unused, and is supplied in an original, plain Finescale Brass box. Note that the sprung buffers are supplied but have never been fitted. Hawksworth tenders were first produced for the 'County' 4-6-0 class (30 tenders) with later examples built for 'Halls' and 'Castles' (107 tenders). There was a 6 inch width difference between the slightly wider 'County' tenders and the later 'Castle/Hall' tenders but I believe that only one type was produced by Sancheng - the later type (as Sancheng did not model the 'County' 4-6-0 loco). £300.
