Prototype Info

The prototype O&K well tank was available in a range of standard designs and primarily marketed as a ‘contractors’ type locomotive, supplied to small industrial firms for internal narrow gauge networks or construction projects. In the UK they were used for both and there are a number of the 30, 40 and 50hp examples preserved, arguably the most famous being Penrhyn’s Eigiau, a 30hp machine, now based on the Bredgar and Wormshill in Kent (which forms the prototype behind our other 0-4-0wt model). This 0-6-0wt depicts a machine that is sized between the 40 and 50hp designs and is based upon factory sourced prototype drawings.
