I was interested in reading `cocobear`s` previous posting regarding the Bassett-Lowke G1 Mogul.
In case you didn`t know it this company also made Gauge 3 models which was a popular scale that modelers in the UK ran during the 1930s.
Gauge 1 was still very wet behind the ears and gscale was not even at the short trouser stage.
As for gas firing, that was something that blew out soon as you got a breeze!
The gauge 3 Atlantic in this you tube video was made up from parts in 1938, hence the number on the cab side. It is of course coal fired.
The parts were made by a company called Jackson Rigby with whom Henry Greenly was a director / consultant.
Firms like Bonds, Jubb and many others took in these parts and made them into their own kits.
This Atlantic was one such kit and was passed down from a friends late father.
There has been some cosmetic surgery with a new super heater and water pump but basically it very much as made and even has the original boiler
The teaks were made by the late Fred Newman.
