Live steam Locomotives in Gauge O, Gauge 1 and also a 3 ½ inch gauge LBSC Juliet. Live steam Locomotive, so please. SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS. One of LBSCs successful designs and full scale drawings are still available, from model engineering suppliers such as A J Reeves and Co. The Locomotive was also featured month by month in the Model Engineer magazine by the designer LBSC in the volumes 95 to 97. The Juliet has a cylinder bore of 1 inch diameter and a wheel rim size of 3.25 inch diameter. This Locomotive was successfully steamed by the previous owner at his local club track but little used. The smokebox still has soot and coal dust in, to confirm this. It has since been stored for many years following his illness. So there is some minor surface corrosion to some steel parts, which will clean off. The Locomotive does turn but is very very stiff and it does therefore need work to free off again. Probably it would benefit from a partial strip down and clean to remove surface corrosion, followed by full maintenance, to get turning over freely. The Locomotives boiler was tested at the previous owners club but currently does not have a boiler certificate and the expired paperwork cannot be found. So it will need full boiler tests before safe live steam use. Currently finished in LMS maroon, and looks to be complete except for the whistle pipe work and whistle itself. It is fully sprung and has forward and reverse motion operated by notched lever in cab. The Locomotive has a mechanically driven. Racket and pawl, lubricator and also a mechanically driven water feed pump. There is also a hand operated water feed pump in one of the side tanks. All the fittings in the cab and on the back plate operate Ok, as does the steam regulator lever. The cab roof is detached on one side i. The soldered joint has come adrift. The locomotive has a fire grate and ash pan held in place by quick release pin. The buffers are fully sprung and there is a coupling hook to front and rear. There is a dummy safety valve cover and dummy whistle to can roof. This little Locomotive is an ideal winter project and with some work would be ready for steaming during the coming spring season. 21.5 inches long and is approx. 7 inch wide, across the buffer beams and approx. 10.5 inch high, to the top of the chimney.
