SONIC MODELS S4101-01A ROBINSON A5 (GCR CLASS 9N) 4-6-2 GCR GREAT CENTRAL GREEN NO.372 STEAM TANK LOCOMOTIVE

John Robinson, he of Waterford Limerick and Western fame, produced these large tank locos which, bare a resemblance, in Great Central colours, to a BCDR Baltic (of course, he forgot the extra wheels!).

Lovely looking loco. See it on Rails of Sheffield site.

If you think the Robinson A5 tank is bulky, you should see his L1 (later L3) 2-6-4T.....
