PLL Peckett 0-6-0ST Tank (all liveries)

Peckett & Sons of Bristol were one of the most prolific producers of industrial steam locomotives in the UK. This model is based on the 1860 (or B3) class locomotive which was a powerful 0-6-0ST with two 14in x 22in cylinders and a tank capacity of 920 gallons.

This design was a relative late comer to the scene, the first being built in 1935 for Cwm Colliery, South Wales, it was named 'Menelaus' and is preserved at the Caledonian Railway, Brecon.

It is typical of larger industrial locomotives with outside cylinders, inside valve gear and a saddle tank which provided relatively easy access to the valve gear between the frames when there was no servicing pit available which was often the case on industrial lines.

These locomotives (or ones that looked very similar) could have been seen anywhere in the UK up until the 1970s and even today their robustness and simplicity make them a popular choice for preserved lines.
