A real gem of a live steam Calder Craft model SS Talacre for sale. With complete live steam plant, including gas tank, boiler and twin oscillating engine. The model has been built extremely well, and hopefullly the photos above show this. The single hatch deck plate need some more tiny chain rings, but other than that all looks good. At 40" (add another 3" for the rudder) in length it is a nice size and built with loving care to an extremely high standard.
The cargo ship is all set up for Radio control use, rudder & steam engine running speed. The RC gear is will need a transmitter, possible receiver & battery & checking.
Viewing is highly recommended. Comes with original box.
Under the steam plant is a thick brass plate for balast.
Model has a flat hull so can easily be sat on a flay surface for display or easy to transport. All the deck and top detail can easily be removed in sections to gain quick access to the steam plant and radio gear.
Model measures 85cm long x 16.5cm across. Height to mast tip is 39cm.
Boiler is about 7.5" long and 3" diameter. The engine is a twin cylinder oscillating engine.
Price: £ 1,575 (No additional VAT to add)
