Brecon & Merthyr Kerr, Stuart 0-6-0 no.35

Post by NeilB »

Does anyone know of a photo of the Brecon & Merthyr's Kerr, Stuart "Victory" six-coupled tank engine no. 35, preferably in B&M condition?

There are no photos of it in the Oakwood history, nor in Jim Russell's OPC volume on GW absorbed engines. It's a bit of a rare bird, having only been bought in 1920 and being sold by the Great Western in 1929, though it survived in north-east England until 1951. Since there is now a ready-to-run model of the class in 7mm scale, it could have a certain popularity for modellers of the south Wales area ...

Have a look at RCTS Locos of the Great Western Railway, part 10, fig K312.

There is a good article in Railway Bylines July 1998, But no picture of B&M No.35.

Any chance of making this photograph a bit smaller?
