As it's an Accurascale loco, then it stands to reason its a UK prototype. The lads have hinted that it has an Irish connection, so then I reckon it's either one that was/is in use over here as well as in Britain (or very similar to one). As others have said smaller seems to be better when it comes to O, so I think there's a good chance it could be one of the industrial locos from a UK manufacturer. Which ever it is, it's likely the prototype is still in existence somewhere.

So if the prototype ran in both Britain and Ireland and if we're feeling very lucky, then perhaps it could be a CSÉ Ruston, or maybe one of the shunters from Guinness, LP&HC, or Shell? (I don't know enough about them to know how generic those ones' designs are though)

I'd say there'll be an IRM announcement for their first O gauge loco soon enough too
