A fine exhibition standard 7 1/4 inch gauge model of London, Midland and Scottish Railway Coronation Class 7P 4-6-2 4-6-2 tender locomotive 'Duchess of Abercorn' valued at £40,000-50,000
A train enthusiast's stunning collection of model steam engines he used to happily drive around his garden is tipped to sell for 200,000 pounds. With the help of his family the late Don Witheridge laid three-quarters of a mile of track on his five acres of land he bought from British Rail and commissioned prominent locomotive builders to make model steam engines. The locos are exact working replicas of real engines from the golden age of steam
