N Gauge Stephenson’s Rocket Tender Scratch Aid V1

This is an N Gauge model of the iconic 1829 locomotive ‘Rocket’s’ tender, depicted as it was during the Rainhill trials.  Combined with the N Gauge Stephenson’s Rocket locomotive (separately available), this scratch aid enables an unpowered free-rolling model engine.  Coupled to the motorised Liverpool and Manchester Railway coach or motorised flatbed (each separately available, plus free-rolling coaches and trucks), a fully working 'Era 1' N Gauge train can be created.

Also available are ‘Rocket’ as rebuilt after the Trials and ‘Rocket’ as currently preserved.

Necessary to Complete:
Graham Farish wagon wheels (x2)
Couplings (the method used is at the builder's discretion)
Weight (the barrel and underside are hollow)

Optional additional details to scratchbuild (at the builder's discretion):
Tender axleboxes
Coal & crew

I hope you enjoy this unusual and eye-catching model.
