The Rev. Awdry book you won't find on anyone's shelves is the one titled 'Shitty the Shunter'.
Himself has been cracking on with Harold II, competing all the alterations and additions to the basic white metal body.
Thanks to the tiny coreless motor installed in the Arnold Kof chassis the cab area is open and there's space to put a driver.
The rear of the engine cover and the roof supports are made out of brass, as are the chassis frame pieces at the sides.
The axle boxes have been repurposed from a set of Dundas VoR carriage bogies.
It's a shame we don't have a Boston Lodge diorama on which to run it.
What excuse can we come up with for the occasional foray to Dduallt or Beddgelert??
