"Kelpie"

Over the last couple of months I have built a new loco named "Kelpie".  It's a brass kit which I soldered together, the first time I have tried this.  It's not my best build, nor the paint job, but it's still holding together so some of the soldered joints must have worked!

A photo taken on "Raven Hill" about to cross the bridge.

"Kelpie" is a Minimum Gauge Models (MO012) "Toby" Style Tram Locomotive kit.

Here, most of the body shell has been made.

Seen on "Raven Hill" approaching the level crossing.

And again on "Raven Hill" outside the engine shed.

"Kelpie" was tested at the Broadland Model Railway club exhibition in Stalham on 27/08/2023.
