L & B BALDWIN 2-4-2T LYN

The original locomotive “Lyn” was built for the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway, by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, in 1898. Our model is based on the locomotive as it was
returned from overhaul by the Southern Railway at their Eastleigh works in 1929.

The model is internally gas fired and manually controlled, however it is suitable for conversion to radio control. The engine is gauge adjustable for either 32mm (‘0’ gauge) or 45mm (‘1’ gauge) - all the parts for this are supplied with the model. This operation can be undertaken by the owner and only takes a few minutes. The cab roof lifts up to give access to the gas, water and lubricator fillers. The boiler is fitted with a water level check valve and the lubricator has an under floor drain. The chassis features the prototypical “bar” frame design and is fully sprung. The wheels are spoked and insulated as standard.

The model is built from stainless steel and brass, and with the correct maintenance, will give a lifetime of pleasure.
