It's been a while, but a couple of days ago this little (well big) beauty came up on Rails of Sheffield for half price! It is an 0 gauge (that's 7mm or 1/43rd scale) of an A1/A1XX often called a Terrier and is basically the model class of Stepney. This particular one is in black (aka BR colours) and unnamed/unnumbered, so I will need to source some transfers or preferably etched plates to finish it off. Being in BR colours it typically won't be named, instead it should carry the BR logo on the tank and just a number on the side of the cab. But I've never necessarily been 100% boring, sorry I mean accurate, so if I can find them may get name plates etc... for Stepney anyway and have a unique model!
Anyway here's a few pics to show the detail, its pretty good, especially the cab interior...
