Unfortunately there were no drawings or document identifying the model name or supplier. I've done a quick search on the internet and found it is not a Stuart model so I'm hoping someone may be able me identify it.

227 forum posts 4 photos	Hi Paul Many thanks and you are spot on with the model. I went onto their site and looked at the casting which bear the same numbers as those on the parts I have. I'm not a steam model builder so I'll probably sell the kit on to someone more likely to complete it in the manner it deserves. Clive
