A full size miniature ?
|
This outstanding model was brought to the show in a shopping basket by the lady owner. The builder's plate has the name "Victoria" made by W. Middleton of Birmingham. It was said to have been built in the 1850's. A remarkable piece of historic model engineering.
Unfortunately the tender is no longer with the loco.
It is thought the model is of a "Norris" style loco built in Philadelphia, U.S.A. about 1837. Similar pattern locos were later built in the U.K. by Hick of Bolton & Nasmyth of Manchester.
