Default Full size steam roller for restoration

Hello all. I am looking for a full size British steam roller that is in need of restoration. I don’t mind how much/little work is needed but i am looking to keep the price down and therefore am realistically going to be looking for something without current boiler certs and in need of work etc. Many thanks. Jon

Hi

Not Strictly British, but they do make a nice looking roller when done:- http://www.tractiontalkforum.com/showthread.php?t=19694

Keeping the purchase price down too!

It may have gone, I just remember seeing it on here...

Cheers

Dave

There was an F type Aveling for sale a couple of months ago on here, from the pictures it got sent it looked very complete and a good price to. We were very tempted but decided to keep our minatures instead of buying another full size roller.
