This week we present for your enjoyment the one and only 'Gentleman's light sporting locomotive'.
That's how one of the pre-war FR drivers affectionately referred to the Single Fairlie 'Taliesin' which was reborn at the beginning of the 21st Century.
(Let's not get into the debate about whether it's a rebuild or a replica here.)
Our model is a pretty standard Backwoods Miniatures kit and it's a beautifully quiet and smooth running machine.
The real 'Taliesin' will be worth watching in the coming months as it emerges from Boston Lodge with a pair of beautifully disguised piston valve cylinders.
