Top quality keyring with spinning centre featuring the legend 5XP and the cabside No. 5551 on one side and Colin Wright's image 'A Brush With The Past' on the other.
The outer frame bears the wording The LMS-Patriot Project along with our web address on one side and THE UNKNOWN WARRIOR, IN MEMORY OF THE FALLEN on the other.
We only have a few models left in stock which unfortunately have suffered slight damage. Therefore the price has been reduced from £25.00 to £15.00.
You will also receive a pair of smokebox numberplates, 5551 and 45551, so you may if you wish add the appropriate one to reflect LMS or BR ownership, and a shed plate.
Mug featuring our very own 'Patriot' number 45551 'The Unknown Warrior' on shed at Llangollen. From an original oil painting by Colin Wright. £6 + £4.50 P&P

A dialogue has started with Riley and Son Engineering, and tender responses are still awaited from The Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust and Railway Forgings and Castings. However Tyseley Locomotive Works recently informed the project that they will not tender for the contract for workload reasons.
In the meantime work continues at Crewe Heritage Centre on the engine's lubrication pipework, led by Nigel Day.
